Freak Alley Gallery, Boise, Idaho

 

A most pleasant surprise during my latest visit to Boise was exploring Freak Alley Gallery.  It's an outdoor display of dozens of murals crafted by many local street artists.  Their style, colors and themes were captivating and often provocative.

01 Freak Alley

Freak Alley Gallery is the largest open-air art display in the northwest.  It began more than 20 years ago when the first mural was created by Colby Akers over the alley doorway to Moon's Cafe.  Over the years many murals and artworks have been added and the art now extends over many walls and down connected alleys.  The gallery is every changing, with new art added ever year.

Here, in no special order, are some of the works that caught my eye:
