Designed to capture the essence of Collierville’s historic charm, this mural quickly became a beloved focal point for residents and visitors alike. This project reflects the vibrant tapestry of Collierville’s past.

In 2009, Megan and Mark Davey of Davey Studio’s in Arlington, Tennessee were commissioned by Main Street Collierville to bring this mural to life. Nestled in the heart of the historic Town Square, this striking piece of public art greets everyone with a welcoming burst of color and nostalgia.

Vivid colors and intricate details bring to life images of storefronts, bustling markets, and the Norfolk Southern railroad, each element carefully chosen to honor the town’s enduring spirit. Local landmarks like the Collierville Christian Church on the left side are woven seamlessly into the composition, celebrating the contributions of generations who shaped Collierville’s identity.

 The mural serves not only as a visual journey through time, but also as a cherished reminder of community pride, creativity, and the importance of preserving local heritage for future generations.

The mural was a project for the Leadership Collierville Class of 2009 in conjunction with Main Street Collierville.

Funding was made possible by a State of Tennessee Innovation Grant, a Community Fund Grant, and the Main Street Collierville’s Pennies for Preservation Fund.

A special thank you to Collierville Masonic Lodge #152 for allowing the placement of the Collierville mural on their building.
