Wynwood Walls & Street Art Tour

What your day looks like

Wynwood Walls is the center of the Wynwood Art District. Conceived by Tony Goldman and initially co-curated by Jeffrey Deitch, it is a collection of curated murals by artists from around the world, on the walls of former warehouses that surround a series of courtyards that open from one another. The space is enclosed and gated, with no vehicle traffic. Our tour includes a ticket to the Walls as well as a guided tour of it. Listen to the story of how Wynwood rose from a neglected industrial/urban zone to an Art District and the role of Tony Goldman in its development. Learn how the Walls (and Doors) are curated at Wynwood Walls and what their life span is. Then, strolling through the courtyards, pause at several murals, like Shepard Fairey’s homage to Tony Goldman in the company of other iconic figures and Vhils’s reliefs blasted out of stone. Take in the art, snap photos, and hear about who the artists are, what their place is in street art history, what techniques they use, and what messages and meanings may be behind their work. Ask questions and converse with your Guide and fellow group members about your impressions to further deepen your art experience.
