NIHCA is a National company working with insurance providers and fitness gyms throughout the US, based in beautiful Granite Falls, MN. Our national company moved from the Twin Cities ten years ago and has thrived since moving our office to rural Minnesota.
Granite Falls is a beautiful town right off the Minnesota River. Granite Falls has murals down by the river but not throughout town. NIHCA has a beautiful brick front with a large picture window. However, the back of our building sits in a drab alley way that is visible from our active main street.
After talk and contemplation we decided it was time to bring out some color to our drab alley. It was important to us that we hired a local artist. Tamara Isfeld is a local artist and teacher in our community. She offers many opportunities for our community and our youth and we were thrilled she was able to work with us on this project. Tamara Isfeld was able to design exactly what we had pictured in our brainstorming sessions. We wanted a mural that brought attention to the great highlights in Granite Falls and the beauty that hasn’t been on any mural to date, anywhere else in town. Our mural depicts the great history of Granite Falls and how many wonderful things we have to offer.
If you find yourself passing through the small town of Granite Falls, MN, take a few minutes to walk or drive North on Prentice Street, take a look West at the alley (before the one-way street) and see what we all love about our hometown.
