Go behind the story of Coca-Cola’s Paint the Nation with America250 mural at Charlotte Motor Speedway, created by Charlotte artist Amber Thompson. America250 is a nationwide, nonpartisan initiative honoring the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and celebrating the people, places, and stories that continue to shape the American experience. Amber shares how her mural brings together American motorsports, veterans, race-day traditions, and Coca-Cola heritage in a tribute to the Charlotte community. Inspired by the energy of NASCAR and Victory Lane, the artwork features race cars, a checkered flag, a military flyover, a saluting veteran, and a hand raising a Coca-Cola. Amber also reflects on her personal connection to Coca-Cola through her grandfather, a Coca-Cola sign painter who hand-painted race cars, and how that family legacy helped inspire her own career as an artist. Located at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, North Carolina, the mural is part of Coca-Cola’s Paint the Nation celebration of America250, bringing local stories and communities to life through art.
