Downtown Howell is home to many permanent art installations that cultivate a cultural experience of our area as you walk around. As you shop, dine, and explore, don't forget to take in the mixed-media arts that decorate the downtown area. From sculptures to paintings, every corner can lead you to a discovery. One exhibit is a series of glass panels by Jessica Tokman throughout the Downtown Howell Outdoor Public Art. This gorgeous series pays homage to Howell’s rich history and traditions. Panels feature the Howell Melon Festival, Michigan Challenge Balloonfest, Sunday Farmer’s Market, and Court House Lawn Concerts. Another exhibit is the Native American Bent Limb Topiary Sculpture, inspired by the “Indian Trail Tree."" In the early 1800s, the Pottawatomie Indians planted and hand-bent tree limbs toward “The Grand River Trail,” a commonly used pathway to guide, reference food, water, and safe travel.
