The Hattiesburg Pocket Museum’s alley is always a place of surprise and wonderment for first-time and repeat visitors as there is always something new to see and experience.

Just in the last two months the alley has four new works of art to see including “Mouse House” and “Be BRAVE Little One” by Lissa Ortego, owner of Bristles Studio and creator of 5 additional art installations in the Pocket Alley. New artists to the alley are mother and daughter artists Colbey and Aubri Sparkman who brought color, movement and whimsy to two utility boxes with their works “Peace, Love and the Hub” by Colbey and “Detective McDroppings on the Case” by Aubri.

“We are so fortunate to have such a wealth of talented artists in our community,” said Rick Taylor, Executive Director of the Hattiesburg Convention Commission which oversees and manages the Hattiesburg Pocket Museum. “Their creativity and willingness to turn a relatively drab space into a work of art has really made our alley a very special place to visit.”
