Statz paints Packers memories by number

Thanks to Sturgeon Bay native Zane Statz, you can be a part of a cherished Green Bay tradition without having property overlooking Lambeau Field. For the third year in a row, Statz invites fans to grab a brush and help paint the fence near the intersection of Ridge Road and Lombardi Avenue for the now-annual paint-by-number community mural. In 2023, community members’ talents helped showcase the Packers’ quarterback lineage, while last year’s highlighted some of the team’s other stars. Thanks to the generosity of fans near and far, he painted over the community mural to raise thousands of dollars for local charities by painting their faces on the fence in time for the NFL Draft. Even though he likes creating his own artwork, he says there is something special about making a mural that everybody can participate in.

Thanks to the Packers' recent acquisition of Micah Parsons, Statz had to adjust his design on the fly to ensure the new star defensive player was included in the fun. You can help Statz and dozens of other Packers fans fill in the rest of the details on September 6th, beginning at 8 a.m. After the fence is painted, Statz says there will be a spot for people to take a picture to make it look like they are doing the Lambeau Leap with the rest of the players.
