HATTIESBURG, Miss. (WDAM) - What if someone took all the great works of art from the best museums in the world, added colorful paint, sparkles and glitter and shrunk them down to mouse-size? That is just what happened at the Hattiesburg Pocket Museum.

Thanks to the creativity and design work of Lynda and Cory Hartup, with the assistance of Tom Siebert, classic art pieces such as “Hunting Diana” by Cametti and “Discobolus” by Myron have been shrunk to pocket size via Cory’s 3-D printer and embellished by Lynda and Tom.

With all of the “great works” in one museum, visitors to the Hattiesburg Pocket Alley will enjoy these classics with more than a bit of an artistic twist.
