Summer Spray 2025
Summer Spray is a collaborative mural-making event that will showcase the live creation of a dynamic 1,300-square-foot mural wall over the span of the summer.
Each Gallery Hop weekend, starting June 7, three local artists will paint a section of the mural wall.
While each artist’s piece will be unique, together they will create one brand new piece of locally-collaborated public art which will live on in the Short North Arts District beyond its creation.
Catch Summer Spray in action at the mural (see map, located at “the cap”).
See more Summer Spray Art at our pop-up gallery on select Saturdays this summer! More information coming soon.
