Penn Mac Mural by multiple artists

Covering three walls along the side of Pennsylvania Macaroni Company (Penn Mac) in the Strip District, this mural is pretty straight forward. Depictions of the fresh fruits and vegetables and other foods sold inside. Commercial? Maybe, but not blatantly so. Taken on it’s own it just represents a bounty of good food. The name of the business isn’t on it, so we perceived it to be on par with Welcome to the Strip in the way that mural depicts the foods and things offered in the Strip District as a whole.

Wine, cheese, olives, peppers, meat, grapes and a jug.

It appears that they partially enclosed one section to provide some shelter for carts and customers at the entrance, so portions of the mural are now blocked.

Images of tomatoes on the vine, garlic, green pepper with shopping carts in front.
