Graffiti Alley

AWESOME photo backdrop — so fun and pretty. Worth the stop. Located in an L-​shaped alley between North Avenue and Howard Street

Tucked away in an L-​shaped alley between North Avenue and Howard Street in Baltimore is an oasis of color. Bleak, disheveled buildings mask the hidden paintings of a unique culture of artists: graffiti artists.
Graffiti Alley in Midtown pays homage to an art form often seen as vandalism.
Between the brick buildings you will find graffiti artists spraying the alley with a fresh coat of paint. They refer to themselves as writers, and the walls of the alley are their canvas where they can experiment and develop their style without fear of punishment.
