Street art is a captivating form of expression. While it often gets labeled as graffiti or vandalism, its beauty and artistic value cannot be ignored. Street artists create large, striking images that captivate critics and admirers alike. These artworks, whether authorized or not, are public displays of the artists’ talent and creativity.

Street art enriches the cultural landscape, reflecting community values, history, and social issues. It fosters civic pride, public artistry, and outdoor engagement, drawing residents and tourists to local businesses. By promoting activism and creating awareness about social and environmental issues, street art becomes a necessity, not a luxury.

Unfortunately, street art is often fleeting. Graffiti removal crews may quickly erase it, or other artists may paint over it. What sets The Roving Street Art project apart is its ability to provide canvases to many artists and place finished works in different locations from where they were created. It will use temporary, freestanding plywood walls called the Roving Street Art Wall, each measuring 8’ x 8’. Artists can access these walls for a set period, after which the panels will be relocated to various venues for public exhibition. This initiative allows street artists to showcase their talent in an organized, safe manner for everyone to enjoy.
