This was the rest room on main Street where they had decorations all over and a scavenger hunt that takes you to the art center. Not only decorative, but fun.

I loved the individual art works. The whole place promotes local initiative.
The Grassroots Art Center educates, exhibits, documents and preserves grassroots, outsider art environments and folk art in the Midwest. 501(c)(3) not-for-profit
Grassroots art is created by self-taught individuals, usually during their retirement years. Often driven by a vision, they work for many years creating an environment which is meant to be viewed as a whole. Many times the artist is inspired by seemingly useless recycled items. These environments are difficult to preserve and often deteriorate or are dismantled when the artist dies.
