Our History

Our movement began in 1993 in the town of Allerton, Iowa.  This event where the union of the community of Allerton and the Walldog artists proved to be much more than beautiful art on the walls.  In fact, it was such a success that the artists went back to their hometowns and hosted similar events.  Thus, the beginning of the Walldog Public Art Movement.  Here are some pictures and videos of the towns we've painted.
