About this Event

Beyond the Freedom Trail, Boston has quietly become a world-class canvas for the modern public art movement. Join Art Walks Boston for a curated, immersive exploration of high-impact murals and established street art created from 2008 to the present

Led by local expert, author, and Art Walks Boston founder Rob Larsen (sharing decades of perspective), this is not a casual walk. We take a deep dive into signature works from local legends and international masters, discussing the technical scale, funding models, and community impact that defines these iconic pieces.

What You’ll Experience:

  • The Scale: Decipher the technique behind massive, building-defining murals from global artists like El Mac or Shepard Fairey
  • The Icons: View established works from local masters that have become definitive parts of the urban landscape.
  • The Curation: Discuss how these specific pieces were selected and how the modern "Mural Movement" shaped Boston’s visual identity over the past 15 years.
  • The Process: Gain insight into the artists’ techniques and the evolution of technique in the last decade.

Note on Group Size: To ensure an engaging and interactive experience, this public tour is strictly capped at 12 participants.

Private, Corporate, & VIP Events: Looking for a custom experience? We specialize in high-impact corporate team-building events for tech firms and visiting groups, and curated private VIP tours (including local museums).
