Amish Street Art Wall Mural in North Wildwood

Amish Street Art Wall Mural in North Wildwood
We've been going down to the Jersey Shore several times a year for the past 30+ years. When it comes to my family's vacation time, we love spending it down at the shore. Our favorite coastal towns in New Jersey are Ocean City, Avalon, Stone Harbor, Wildwood and Cape May. Yes, visiting south Jersey is the best in our book!

Every time we go down there we're on the lookout for new street art and outdoor wall murals that we haven't seen before. We are HUGE fans of street art and coastal wall murals and have photographed & visited about 30 different ones located around New Jersey. You can find those posts right HERE on our blog.

On a recent trip down to Wildwood we spotted this outdoor wall mural located on the side of The Gourmet Market building in North Wildwood. The building looks vacant, so I'm not sure if it's for sale or if someone has recently purchased it or what.

One of the reasons this one caught our eye is for the simple fact that most street art and outdoor wall murals located in the area are beach or coastal related. This one is totally different and really stands out! The hand-painted artistic design features an Amish farm. Yes, an Amish farm! This is a design I would expect to see in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

I took some photographs of it which I'm sharing with all of you today. I tried to do some research online to find out who the artist was, but couldn't locate any information on it. The design is actually 3 different artistic paintings, obviously all done by the same artist and meant to depict a scene. It's really pretty to see in person!

If you would like to see the outdoor wall mural yourself, you'll want to look for the big dark red building located on 706 New Jersey Avenue in North Wildwood, New Jersey. It's sits on the corner and can't be missed!
