About the Mural Gallery at AMP

AMP’s mural gallery, set in a renovated historic mill, combines industrial character with an artistic edge. Its centerpiece is the incredible indoor mural—120 feet long and five stories high—that celebrates American workers on a grand scale.

With the mural as the backdrop to the workshop—and three levels for viewing and reflecting—you'll have a rare opportunity to explore a space that honors creativity, work, and the stories that shape us.
