Sk8 Raleigh Public Art Mural

3ft x 10ft Parking Lot Mural | September 2023 | 905 Capital Blvd Raleigh NC

Every space has the potential to be a creative backdrop, and a parking lot is no different!

If you haven’t already seen it, Sk8Park Raleigh is putting a once empty community space to good use with their new skate park off of Capital Blvd! Re-energizing this space with movement and community, the skate park opened during the Summer of 2023 and is now going to take it a step further by filling the space with color!

Side by side, myself and a curated group of local artists are going to bring bold and colorful murals to the safety barriers between the skate park and the parking lot. Visible from Captial Blvd, this paintings will be enjoyed for years to come!

Over the month of September — keep an eye out! Or, if you are available, attemnd one of Sk8Park Raleigh’s free community events where you will get to meet the artists and see our work come to life right before your eyes!

  • Sept 15th - Group Paint “Meet the Artists” Event (5-9pm)

  • Oct 1st - “Community Skate and See” Event and see all of the completed murals (1-5pm)
