About

MURAL is a nonprofit organization based in Montreal, whose mission is to make street art more accessible. It produces MURAL Festival, a public art festival that takes place alongside Montreal’s Saint-Laurent Boulevard every year in June. The festival features large murals, musical shows, digital installations, and technology-centric exhibitions. MURAL also produces works and special events throughout the year, both in Montreal and other areas of Quebec.

MURAL is celebrated as a key player in the promotion of urban art in all its shapes and forms and has been awarded multiple prizes, among which the Grand Prix du tourisme de Montréal (2014, 2016, 2019), the Prix Idea (2021), the Grand Prix du design (2022), and the Sponsorship Marketing Award (2022).

Faisons vivre l’art au cœur de la ville!

“Depuis 2012, le Festival MURAL met en lumière le talent de créatrices et créateurs d’ici et d’ailleurs, leur procurant une vitrine inestimable. Reconnu dans le milieu des arts visuels, ce rendez-vous estival attire autour du boulevard Saint-Laurent des milliers de gens chaque année, ce qui contribue à dynamiser le centre-ville et à enrichir l’offre touristique de Montréal.

Nous saluons l’engagement des artistes participants et celui des personnes derrière l’organisation de cette édition, qui s’annonce tout aussi inspirante que les précédentes.

Notre gouvernement est fier de soutenir un événement qui appuie l’identité culturelle de la métropole!

Bon festival!”
