Packers Community Mural returns for third year

The Packers Fence Community Paint-by-Numbers Mural is back for its third year, bringing fans together to celebrate one of the most iconic traditions in football history — the Lambeau Leap.

Local artist Zane Statz, who has been painting Packers murals since 2014, will once again outline a 70-foot by 6-foot mural on Lombardi Avenue for the community to bring to life.

Fans of all ages are invited to help paint beginning at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 6, continuing until the mural is complete.

No sign-up or supplies are required, just show up and grab a brush.

Each year, the mural has grown in size and participation.

In 2023, over 200 people painted the fence in just two hours. Last year, nearly 500 fans took part, completing the mural in around eight hours.

This year’s design is the most ambitious yet, honoring the Lambeau Leap while featuring legendary Packers and a few local icons.

For fans looking for extra fun, the design also includes a special spot where they can pose alongside the players for the perfect photo.

The project is sponsored by Kwik Trip, whose familiar red-capped employee is cleverly incorporated into the mural’s design.

“This event has become a way for fans to not just watch history but to paint themselves into it,” said Statz. “The Lambeau Leap is all about celebration and community, and that’s exactly what this mural represents.”
