Details

Street Wise Mural Festival returns September 13-15, 2024. Street Wise Arts’ flagship program explores the intersection of art and activism (ARTivism) while centering womxn, BIPOC, LGBTQIA, and emerging artists based in Colorado and beyond. The Festival primarily installs public art projects throughout the city of Boulder.

In 2024, the Street Wise Mural Festival will spotlight themes of environmentalism and climate action. We invite artists to create murals and public art projects that address this theme, humanizing climate change and its impacts, visualizing scientific data, and connecting viewers to climate scientists and activists. Ultimately we hope artists will educate and empower community members to take action and inspire climate optimism.

3 new mural installations will be painted throughout downtown - check out live paintings happenings during the festival at the following spots:
