Maynard’s Street Art Obsession – Montreal, Canada

Last Updated on February 12, 2024 by Travelationship

The atmosphere was busy for midnight. As we searched for food options in the Chinatown area, we noticed a few art pieces here and there. In the dark, Montreal seemed to be promising. In the daylight, Montreal was a street art jackpot. As we made our way around, our original plans were quickly scrapped, and our trip became centered around viewing as much street art as possible.

Street Art Jackpot in Montreal

Art was abundant everywhere in Montreal, but Saint Laurent Boulevard was where we should have been the entire trip. The murals we captured were beyond belief. I tried my best to photograph all of them, but we ran out of time.

Montreal’s encouraged street art attitude reminds me of London, and the sheer amount of work on display was up there with Paris and Amsterdam. My Montreal Street Art experience was one of my most favorite. If you are interested in my guide to Street Art, look here.

If you are into street art, plan a trip to Montreal during their Mural Festival. The festival is typically in the summer; check out their website for details. If you go, please let us know all about it! We would love to share your post!

        • Hello Xuan-Tien, I am sorry I don’t remember the exact address, but it should be quite close to the intersection of St Laurent Blvd and Rue Saint Norbert; possibly even on St Dominique St. I hope it is still up as I believe it was an entry on the 2013 Mural Festival. Thanks for stopping by and good luck on your quest.

          -Happy Travels
