If you've been following our travel blog for awhile now, you'll already know that we love checking out outdoor wall murals and street art when we travel. We've featured quite a few here on our blog and today, we are sharing another one that we found down in North Wildwood New Jersey.
This beautiful "We Will Never Forget" wall mural is painted on the side of the Elks Lodge Building which sits on the main drag through North Wildwood, New Jersey. The mural takes up the entire side of the building. For many years there was a different mural on the building which had faded and needed to be repaired. Instead of repairing it, they had a new mural painted.
The design honors 4 different branches of the military: Army, Navy, Air Force, and the Marines. The colors are bright and I love the red, white, and blue American Flag. In the center you'll see our nation's symbol...the American Bald Eagle in all of his glory!
We all need to remember and honor our service men and women. We can NEVER FORGET their service and what they've done for our country. It's a stunning piece of street art and if you're going to be in the area...I recommend you take a few minutes out of your day to stop by and see it.
Wildwood has a lot of street art and wall murals featured on the front, sides, and backs of various buildings on the island. The majority of them are beach theme'd, so this military one really stands out. It's a nice reminder that we can never forget our heroes and that freedom is never really free. The mural was painted by one of my favorite wall mural companies, MG Signs. A beautiful piece of street art.
