Street Art Walk
Take a stroll through Oaxacan neighborhoods learning about history, culture and the unique art.
Overview
Activity details
Join us at 9:00 a.m. at the Coyote Aventuras office. After introductions and getting to know each other a little, we’ll head out to explore the living museum that is Oaxaca’s urban art scene.
Our street art walk in Oaxaca offers a vibrant tour through the cultural soul of the city, where colorful murals and captivating graffiti adorn its streets. Starting in the historic center, you’ll be immersed in a kaleidoscope of artistic expression. We’ll begin our walk along Calle Alcalá, where striking murals showcase Oaxaca's indigenous heritage and social struggles.
As we wander through the streets, we’ll show you hidden alleys and unexpected corners where hidden gems of street art await discovery. From the bustling Benito Juárez markets to the peaceful patios of Jalatlaco, each neighborhood offers its own unique canvas for local and international artists to leave their mark. Along the way, we’ll take the time to interact with the local community, many of whom are deeply involved in the creation and preservation of Oaxaca's street art scene. Whether you're an art enthusiast, a cultural explorer, or just a curious traveler, this walk promises an unforgettable experience full of creativity and inspiration. We’ll also visit a local gallery, an essential form of Oaxacan cultural expression since the 1970s, driven by the master Francisco Toledo.
We’ll take you back to the Coyote Aventuras office at 1:00 p.m. after a full morning of learning about Oaxaca’s important historical and social movements through its urban art.
