About. A wall full of maneki-neko lucky cats — dancing, cooking, slurping ramen, taking selfies — the biggest one playing guitar.

History. Painted by Mobe Oner for Hawkers Asian street food at 626A Main Street, on the west side of the old Family Wash building, facing downtown. The Japanese beckoning cat traditionally waves in good fortune; here a whole chorus of them waves Nashville in for dinner, and naturally the biggest cat picked up a guitar.
