Wenger Corporation is marking its 80th anniversary with a mural by Minnesota artist Adam Turman at its headquarters in Owatonna, Minnesota. The artwork was completed during the summer and announced Oct. 1, 2026.
The mural stands approximately 30 feet high and extends more than 300 feet along the building beside Interstate 35. It covers over 9,000 square feet and uses more than 80 colors, according to Wenger.
The composition traces the company’s history to founder Harry Wenger, an Owatonna music educator whose work led to the company’s first products. Conducting hands and a baton represent those beginnings, while a sousaphone player recalls the Sousaphone Chair introduced in 1946.
Other figures include a young violinist with a music stand, a vocalist inside an acoustical shell, a guitarist, a theater technician and a football player. Northern lights across the background reflect the company’s Minnesota roots. Turman said the painting was his largest work to date.
