The program connects building and business owners with local\, regional\, and national artists to transform blank walls and open spaces into vibrant public artworks. These small and large-scale pieces not only enhance the urban landscape but also offer residents and visitors an opportunity to experience contemporary art as part of everyday life in Ann Arbor and the broader Washtenaw County region. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE for the Wall Crawl Tour\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLEARN MORE ABOUT A2AC MURALS
