Murals are popping up all over the area, from local and world known artists.

Since 2013 Albright-Knox's Public Art Initiative has worked with artists to put up new murals.

They hope to reach a different audience that might not typically be interested in art, but also have the murals be a platform for learning about history and culture. Albright-Knox says they also are supportive of all the local independent artists that have been transforming spaces into murals around town, and they're not the only ones.

Albright-Knox just unveiled their latest mural on Washington Street by Louise Jones. It's now the largest mural in Western New York.
