Before Hispanic Heritage Month ends, we recommend heading to the corridor for an art walk featuring pieces that celebrate the voices, experiences, and values of Atlanta's thriving Hispanic community.

⁠ ⁠ 🎨 "Somos Boricanos" is a multi-mural installation on our Eastside Trail under the Edgewood Avenue Bridge. It honors and celebrates the artist’s Puerto Rican roots, serving as both a love letter to the Caribbean Islands and a means to reverse the narrative of a paper genocide of Taino ancestors. ARTIST: @arrrtaddict⁠ ⁠ 🎨 "#OurLove" is part of an ongoing series of drawings and paintings of Atlanta-based queer couples and can be found on the Northeast Trail under I-85. The piece aims to create awareness and representation for a kind of love that isn’t shown in mainstream media and the abundance of that love in Atlanta. The mural also focuses on exalting the beauty of queer love and the experience of being a QTPOC. ARTIST: @maitexnazario⁠ ⁠ 🎨"Meet Me At the Krayons" is a series of 32 steel posts that have been painted to resemble a giant row of crayons for a simple and playful display along the Westside Trail. ARTIST: Santiago Menendez-Gil⁠ ⁠ To see how else you can experience Hispanic Heritage Month along the corridor, including spots for food and live music, visit the link in our bio.
