Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
New York City

New York City is well known for its many museums and cultural institutions. Many people overlook the wonderful street art the city has to offer such as sculptures, fountains, and murals. Williamsburg is one of the most rewarding places to explore in search of murals which are found all over the neighborhood. The murals are full of color and detail and are both new, old and many famous. With the turn of each corner, one is pleasantly surprised with discovering a new treasure. The murals have a multitude of subjects, everything from historical, social commentary, and comedy! It is a wonderful neighborhood to explore away from the crowds of Manhattan.
