Often celebrated as the heart of America's music scene, Nashville, Tennessee, also holds a vibrant surprise around almost every corner – its dazzling array of murals. Journeying through Nashville's streets, we embarked on an artistic odyssey to uncover these splashes of color and creativity, guided by insights from the AAA Tripcanvas Nashville tours and sightseeing options. From hidden gems to iconic masterpieces, explore some of the most famous murals Nashville offers.
But first, a necessary detour - breakfast at Biscuit Love. Before a day filled with mural hunting, it's crucial to fuel up, and what better way than indulging in their East Nasty biscuit? Certified by AAA diamond, this dish is more than just a meal; it's a rite of passage in Nashville. One bite, and you'll be planning your next visit back.
Our mural discovery begins with the breathtaking 'What Lifts You Wings' mural, a spot that's become synonymous with Nashville itself. This larger-than-life artwork offers a phenomenal photo opportunity and even features a smaller set of wings for kids, ensuring everyone can capture a piece of the magic for their insta.
The 'What Lifts You' series continued to impress with its hot air balloon mural, complete with an actual gondola to stand in! This interactive artwork not only dazzles visually but invites visitors to step into a piece of art, making for an unforgettable experience.
But the mural scene in Nashville is vast so pace yourself and plan for food breaks along the way. Some of our favorites included Draper James's welcoming charm to the motivational vibes of the 'I Believe in Nashville' mural, each piece tells a story, celebrates the community, or simply brightens the day of passersby. 'Looking Pretty, Music City,' Jerry's Artarama’s storefront, 'We Are Seeds,' 'Celebrate Nashville,' and 'Tennessee Tough' are just a few more stops that graced our day of art, each with its very unique allure.
Even with an entire day dedicated to mural exploration, we barely scratched the surface. Nashville’s streets are a testament to the city's rich artistic spirit and cultural tapestry.
