 Outdoor murals are large scale paintings found on the sides of buildings.  Murals are important because they bring beauty to outdoor spaces.  Murals bring artwork to the people instead of people having to visit a museum or gallery to see artwork.

Why are outdoor murals important?

Many new murals have been painted on the east end of Charleston to bring beauty back into the city.  Here is a short video of the mural “All Together Now” taking shape… Click HereHere
