Just outside the 7-Eleven in Grandin Village is a vibrant mural made by the local artist Toobz Muir. The mural depicts various vegetables with bees and butterflies flurrying above. Their delicate wings and the details of the vegetables show off the technical skill of the artist. The mural pulses with energy as the vibrant colors leap off the wall.

This mural replaced an earlier mural by the same artist. For information on the earlier mural, visit artworkarchive.com-The World is a Village
