Mission District – San Francisco
Lilac Alley
Lilac Street runs parallel to Mission between 24th and 26th Streets. It is one of those alleys that serves no purpose other than the backs of businesses and the entry to garages. Several organizations use the buildings in this area as canvases. I counted the Lilac Mural Project and Mission Art 415 as just two. There is not doubt the art changes regularly, and these are the ones I found most interesting on my visit. I know I will return.

These are great. So much color.
Those are some wild paintings. At least it’s art. Nothing drives me crazier than a bunch of scribbled initials and then kids telling you that’s art. No. Well, maybe I’m too midwestern, but I like to see a picture before I call it art. I wonder if they’d come paint my garage door. Hum. My neighbors would have a fit:)
I’m diggin’ the penguin.
