A Century on the Route, July 18, 2026


Three signature events. One unforgettable celebration of art, culture, and community.

Celebrate 100 Years—Layer by Layer
Join us as we mark our centennial with a vibrant, community-wide celebration that brings art, culture, and creativity to life along Route 66.

This multi-layered event weaves together Paint the Route, Mural Fest, and CRAVE the Arts—transforming Main Street into a living canvas. From hands-on painting experiences to live performances and local art displays, there’s something for everyone to explore and enjoy.

Paint the Route

Be a part of a temporary transformation of Downtown Yukon & Paint the Route. Participants will help create a walkable art gallery by painting a 4'x4' square. Families, friends, artists, all are invited to

Paint the Route.
