Street Art

Street art is capturing the attention of global travellers and artists, fueling a new kind of tourism that creatively connects travellers to the mishmash of cultures, heritage and arts that the city is buzzing. Through street art, art pieces are no longer confined in museums or galleries. Today, street art can be found thriving along the city’s five-foot ways and pre-war shophouses, providing visitors glimpses of the state’s history and cultural heritage. The heritage city of George Town’s street art scene may be all the rage, but it’s worth checking out other murals in Balik Pulau, Air Itam, Butterworth and Bukit Tambun, too.
