RVA Street Art: Richmond Mural Project 2016

In July 2016, Art Whino returned to Richmond for its final round of The Richmond Mural Project, realizing their goal of 100 murals and helping to establish Richmond as a major art destination for tourists.

As has become a personal tradition, I trekked to Richmond to photograph the new murals. I made my route based on the event info, which ended up being different than the actual mural locations, so I missed two Jason Woodside murals (at 807 Oliver Hill Way and 3436 Ellwood Ave) and spent a lot of time at several locations without any murals at all.

How cool is this Taylor White Mural that stretches across five different walls?! I had a hard time photographing all of it.

A gorgeous mural by Handiedan in Shockoe Bottom was created using materials that didn't tolerate the 100+ degree heat over the summer.  I also missed a third Jacob Eveland piece (at 521 N. Adams St.) that was totally my bad.
