Graffiti Alley is a new kind of Art in Ann Arbor that you don't want to miss....if graffiti is your kind of thing, that is. But even if it isn't, I have some ideas that might change your perspective.
This colorful alley is located just off of East Liberty Street in Ann Arbor, Michigan. You can visit The Alley if you are attending the mecca of art fairs in July as it's right in the heart of the art.
The history of Graffiti Alley stems from an artist named Katherine Cost. Ms. Cost originally painted an artwork entitled, "Infinite Possibilities" in the alley in 1999. Unfortunately the work was painted over a few years later.
Now the alley is open season for any graffiti artist to leave their mark...literally. It's pretty crazy with lots of colors, messages and images. It's a win-win though, as visitors love the alley. In the summer it is packed with people taking selfies and photos for Instagram.
The artist Banksy stated, “Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable.”
Graffiti Alley is awesome to visit any time of year. The cool thing is that it always evolves and changes! Plus it's free! So try to open your mind to seeing something new, you might enjoy it!
