Discover the heart, art, and soul of Bethlehem’s SouthSide Arts District and Urban Arts Trail. The trail is a 2.7 mile path throughout the business district leading followers to sculptures, bike racks, mosaics, painted flower pots, and murals. The latest mural joining the trail is from the owners of the Flying V Restaurant (201 East Third Street), Christie and Matt Vymazal.
The inspiration came from inside the Flying V, where their first mural by artist Kyle Confehr depicts scattered images of Christie’s Canadian home. Christie and Matt reimagined a similar outdoor mural on what was previously a bare wall that reflected the SouthSide’s businesses, events, and landmarks. The result is a cool display of the many things that make Bethlehem and the SouthSide so special.
“Our public art brings joy, beauty, and celebrates our community.”
– Christie Vymazal
