This mural on boulevard Saint-Laurent in Montreal is the work of artists Jason Cantoro and Annie Hamel, created in 2015. It is one of the street-art pieces found along one of the city's best-known streets, and it makes a good stop for anyone interested in public art in Montreal.
About the mural
The work was organized by MU under the Projet pilote d'art mural, a pilot program for wall art. It was funded through the Entente sur le développement culturel de Montréal, an agreement that supports cultural projects across the city. The mural's address is 5665 boulevard Saint-Laurent, so it can be found by searching for that location.
Planning your visit
- The mural is outdoors, on a wall visible from the street, so it can be seen at any time without a ticket.
- Boulevard Saint-Laurent is a long street with shops, cafés and other murals along its length, so the visit can easily be combined with a walk.
- For more details on the artwork, the City of Montreal maintains an information page for it, which can be found by searching the city's public mural listings.
A visit here suits anyone who enjoys walking through a city and looking at its murals. Because the wall is part of the street itself, it is best seen as one stop in a longer walk along Saint-Laurent rather than as a destination on its own.
