Sunny Dayz Mural Festival
Nov. 25 through Feb. 28

The exhibit includes four murals painted on canvas measuring approximately 25 feet wide by 4 feet tall. Photos and videos of past Sunny Dayz Mural Festivals adorn the surrounding walls and other gallery spaces. This is the group’s first indoor gallery show.
The Mural Festival started in 2021 as an annual summer event with live mural painting, entertainment, activities and independent merchants. It became a nonprofit organization the following year in hopes of advancing and celebrating underrepresented artists, especially women and gender minorities.
