Montreal is a city of artists, and unlike most places, we don’t like to keep our art exclusively in museums. Instead, we take it to the streets and plaster it all over the city.
The best part of Montreal street art is that it is constantly evolving. Every year, MuralFest adds a few more pieces and replaces a few of the older ones, turning the city into one giant art gallery that everyone can enjoy.
The murals in Montreal constantly get shared around the internet and the rest of the world is taking notice.
The murals are easy to spot and mixed in with the popular boutiques, shops, and restaurants.
Note: Most of the murals or graffiti are part of/ very close to Concordia University (less than 0.5 km away from Concordia University).

The following are murals and graffiti near Chinatown and other areas in Montreal (which are still very close to downtown Concordia campus. You can take a metro to Mont Royal and walk for about 10 minutes to Saint-Laurent Boulevard street).
