Street-art tour in Montréal — the history of the murals, from Old Montréal

A guided walk through the history of Montréal street art — starting from our Old Montréal gallery.

Montréal is one of the great street-art cities, and its walls tell a story. On this guided tour, starting from our Old Montréal gallery (163 rue Saint-Paul Ouest), we walk you through the history of the city's murals and graffiti — the artists, the movements and the meaning behind the work — with the eye of a gallery that represents Montréal muralists. It's the best way to read the streets, not just photograph them.

Perfect for visitors, locals and corporate groups who want a memorable, cultural activity in Montréal.
