St Louis Floodwalls and Paint St Louis 2026

 One of my favorite traditions in St Louis happens on Labor Day weekend;
Paint St Louis -
when street artists from around the country 
come to  brighten up the concrete floodwalls 
along the riverfront. 
 
Those efforts transform a dreary, though necessary, urban landscape
into a colorful, free for all to see, art gallery.
I love the creativity talent and results!
 
See what you think!










Since many urban street artists are young males,
there are certainly images that speak to that demographic.
However, as someone who can't realistically draw a paperbag,
I recognize that talent is talent, 
especially at this scale. 


























Always worth the drive to see them!
Get down there, if you can!
