Art in Maricopa by Rylan Blader, Student Intern

The city of Maricopa has always had a tight-knit community due to its ever-growing size.

One way the city demonstrates its sense of community is through these colorful, hand-painted horses. These wild horse statues, known as the "Maricopa Wild Horses" are located in front of several community buildings throughout the city. Each statue is created by a local artist with different stories and meanings in their pieces.

These horses are more than just statues, they represent the hearts and voices of artists and families in our community. As our city grows, so will the number of horses, with new designs continuing to be added to our city.
