What is the Dynamite Museum Sign Project?

The Dynamite Museum is not an actual museum; it's an art collective that created the largest outdoor art display in the world at the time. Discarded road signs were re-purposed by the collective circa 1993 to display funny, absurd, or thought-provoking messages. These outdoor art signs were installed primarily in Amarillo and Adrian, Texas, the midpoint of historic U.S. Route 66.

This mixed media exhibit celebrates Amarillo's outdoor art scene by paying tribute via photographs and 3D prints of the Dynamite Museum signs. Virtually all photographs in the exhibit are signs on or near Route 66. The featured photo on this page, Pearl the Wonder Dog, was photographed shortly before the sign was painted over in the summer of 2024.
