Founded and curated by Miki Mu and Frankie Velez, the BedStuy Walls Mural Festival has for the fouth consecutive year transformed Lexington Avenue between Stuyvesant and Lewis Streets and beyond into a dazzling open-air gallery, while actively engaging the local community. The brightly-hued mural featured above was painted by UK native Klonism and Queens-based Turtle Caps. Several more images of murals — painted by local, national and international artists — follow.

At Washington Walls: Humble, Vince Ballentine, Natural Eyes, Lisart, Barbtropolis, Luci, CAM, BC NBA, Rebs & More

April 11, 2025

Located at 701 Washington Avenue and Clark Place in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, Washington Walls continues to host a wondrously diverse array of murals. We recently visited its current iteration, strikingly curated by community resident and leader Jeff Beler. The ingeniously fashioned mural/installation featured above is the work of Brooklyn-based Humble, who had earlier been immersed in the Richmond, Virgina art scene. What follows are several more images of murals that we captured last week:

Brooklyn-based multidisciplinary artist Vince Ballentine
