Mural Arts Program

Mural Arts Month is under way in Philadelphia, honoring the city's iconic public art and its long-running mural program. The event celebrates Philadelphia's status as a hub for large-scale community murals, drawing attention to the artists and neighborhoods behind them, and giving residents and visitors a reason to explore the city's outdoor artworks.

The City of Boise is running guided tours that use public artworks across the city to tell the stories of its immigrant communities. The initiative connects murals, sculptures and other installations to the histories of the people who helped shape Boise, drawing attention from local media and Boise State's student outlet, The Arbiter.

The Art This Way Fest has concluded with its final day of events, as reported by regional outlet WANE 15. The festival, tied to the Art This Way mural initiative, drew crowds for a closing day of art activities. Details on attendance and programming highlights were not immediately available.

Art This Way Fest is celebrating ten years of public art programming in downtown Fort Wayne. The initiative has spent the past decade bringing murals and other artworks to the city center, and the festival marks the milestone. The Journal Gazette reported on the anniversary celebration.
