Launching in Holyoke: June 15th – June 30th
Join us for the second year in a row as Beyond Walls collaborates with city officials, local business leaders, educators, and nonprofits across the state to create over 25 large scale, world-class murals in 2023 that celebrate the vibrant and diverse communities of Massachusetts.
When? The installations will commence in Holyoke on June 15th and continue for two weeks till June 30th. Artists will transform the city’s exterior walls, some as tall as 50 feet high and 170 feet long, into a vibrant display of art.
What’s New? In addition to the mesmerizing art installations, we’re expanding our Tour City Reel Series to promote local restaurants and businesses in 2023 Street Art Tour cities.
Who’s Involved? We’re proud to work with community partners like Holyoke City Hall, Nueva Esperanza, El Corazón de Holyoke, Mass in Motion, Holyoke Public Schools, Holyoke Community College, OneHolyoke, and more!
Why Holyoke? This marks the first stop of our 2023 Street Art Tour which spans across multiple gateway cities over a four-month period. Beyond Walls aims to bring communities together, increase access to art, provide educational opportunities, support local businesses, and encourage visitors.
