New Lines is a series of artworks that aims to bring attention and appreciation to the unique alleyway systems that exist within Cincinnati’s urban core. This summer, ArtWorks is excited to create an ambitious series of murals in the neighborhood of Pendleton in Bolivar Alley. ArtWorks is commissioning five artists with Cincinnati roots to work with a team of ten Youth Apprentices to create a variety of street art styles and mediums. This activation will make Bolivar Alley a creative destination and outdoor street art gallery for residents and visitors to explore.
This a selection of just a few of the pieces in the alley.
