September 2022 - Botwood Newfoundland

The friendly, small town of Botwood in Central Newfoundland has a surprisingly vibrant artistic side: The Botwood Murals Art Society has scattered 14 large painted murals around town showcasing the vibrant history of the area, including the largest mural in Atlantic Canada at a whopping 9,000 square feet. Here, local artists and muralists from around the world come together to add splashes of colour to the otherwise blank canvases of buildings and walls, resulting in Newfoundland’s very own outdoor gallery.

We didn't find all 14, but enough!

My absolute favourite and biggest.
