Carlsbad Alley Art Wall in Carlsbad Village
Carlsbad’s public art scene has a new, and special, addition in our community.
The Carlsbad Alley Art Wall, conceived and curated by well-known Carlsbad artist Bryan Snyder, was recently dedicated in the Village.
You’ll find the Carlsbad Alley Art Wall at 550 Grand Avenue, on the Tyler street alley wall adjacent to the former Café Ground Up. The Café has closed and a new restaurant, the Village Kabob Mediterranean Grill, will be taking over the space.
This public art wall consists of 17 murals by different artists, the latest completed in January 2022.
There is also a large Recreation Mural Space where aspiring muralists…mainly kids…can practice their painting. It’s ever-changing space, so stop by to see what’s been created, or to watch kids in action. Or bring your to paint!
The Alley Art Wall artists have painted at the Carlsbad Art Wall on Carlsbad Village Drive. You may know about the Carlsbad Art Wall at Senor Grubby’s Mexican Restaurant, which is also a creation of Snyder’s, in 2015 with several new wall murals each year.
We owe a special thank you to Brian for his innovative public art vision for Carlsbad Village, and for spearheading this project from start to finish over many month.
And thank you for all the community support, including financial sponsorships, that made it all possible.
