Oakland, CA
Oakland's mural tradition is one of the Bay Area's most politically charged and visually powerful — a city where Chicano muralism, Black Power iconography, and cutting-edge contemporary street art share walls in neighborhoods from Fruitvale to Temescal. The Black Lives Matter murals on Broadway, the Fruitvale corridor's Mexican heritage walls, and Temescal's rotating gallery of international talent make Oakland one of the country's premier outdoor art destinations.
