Calling all art lovers! Join us for a 75-minute morning stroll through the Northeastern University campus to discover stunning mural art by two internationally renowned French graffiti artists, Astro and Jef Aérosol. We will start our walk from the Huntington Avenue entrance of the Museum of Fine Arts. Our guide, Boston University faculty member Liliane Duséwoir will share with us the story behind this public art initiative before heading up to the sights. Liliane will show us where to look and invite us to reflect on the impact of creative expression in shared physical spaces while we discover these French and global artists’ works. Liliane is looking forward to answering your questions!
This tour will be led in French.
