This downtown walking tour shows you some of Raleigh’s best and most vibrant large-scale art works. The focus will be on Raleigh’s creative murals, but we will also see some notable sculptures. Learn about the artists behind our public art and discover what inspired many of these fabulous pieces. Be sure to bring your camera so that you don’t miss out on all the great photo opportunities! If you took part in the art walk with OLLI in summer term 2021 this walk will cover different art work.
