Cooper Creek Creatures

In 2020, Cooper Creek teamed up with local artist and Uptripping owner, Shannon Foley Henn, to envision a colorful art installation that would capture our unique community. The first phase was to create a bright striped mural that spans the entirety of the first level of the building from Christy Sports to Devil’s Craft. The second phase is to incorporate “creatures” throughout the mural enjoying all that Winter Park has to offer. From hiking and biking to skiing and snowboarding and every activity in between; everyone in our community will have an opportunity to be depicted in this living story.

What is a creature?

A Cooper Creek Creature is a simple line drawing of a person, family or animal. They will be hand painted by Shannon based upon the description provided by the sponsor.
