Best Street Art in Vancouver

Vancouver doesn’t tire you in terms of taking good memorable pictures. The city packs a lot of places ranging from buildings to parks that one can admire. There’s beauty in almost every corner of the city. It is full of local artists that express their creativity and transform the city’s bank walls into the art of work. Keeping this in mind, here are some of the best street art in Vancouver, perfect for your selfies.

Downtown Vancouver

Head down Davie street,  and one of the first things you’ll notice is the bright rainbow crosswalks. It is located between Seymour and Granville Street. The buildings, the lighting, and the street art make this the perfect choice for a photoshoot. Points of interest around the downtown area include hopscotch, colorful lightning, basketball hoops, and a lot of awesome public signs. Be sure to check out Score on Davie while you’re here if you get hungry. 

Granville Island

Going to Granville Island, the first thing you’ll notice is the public art on silos. There are 6 different designs perfectly crafted by twin brothers from Sao Paulo. This is the first artwork by Osgemos in Canada. We hope to see some more in the future.

Main Street

The street art added on the parking lots and street walls between 4th and 14th Avenues are something of a treat for everyone. Some of the best murals in this section are around West Broadway. When visiting the neighborhood, make sure you keep your eyes up because some of the best murals are above the main street. Unfortunately not everyone loves this type of street art and some great murals were removed by a local junk removal company when the city called them in. 

East Vancouver

The street between Clark Drive to Gastown is where you will find a lot of vibrant street art. There are a lot of Vancouver Mural Tours in this area that showcases you the hidden beauty of the streets. There are some amazing portraits of famous celebrities such as Jimi Hendrix plus a fine tribute to Japantown and Chinatown native art.

South Strathcona

Thanks to the Mural Festival, we can see a lot of natural art roaming around in the street of Vancouver. The street around Strathcona is brimming with some spectacular world-renowned local artists and muralists. Here, the most focus of attention is Station, Southern, and Industrial Avenue Streets. So when exploring the area, make sure you cover every alleyway and parking lots. There are almost 50+ murals you can find in the area.

Fun Alley

North Vancouver is another great place to find some interesting arts. Although the streets are limited in terms of design, the once available are unique, dynamic and will surely grab your attention. When visiting the area, look around at 106W 1st Street, there’s a rainbow-hued space art created by Lukas Kasper.

South Granville

The rainbow mural in south Granville is a nice spot for photo professionals. Go there, stand in the middle and a perfect picture is ready to upload for your Instagram account. Granville has the largest collection of art dealers and galleries. Make sure to check them out too when in the area.

Conclusion:

Vancouver Streets are filled with tons of great street art and artist. Almost every main broadway road is filled with some remarkable eye-catching designs. Watching street art is among the best family-friendly activities to do in Vancouver.
