Removed from Unnamed collection

Tucked away on Milwaukee's East Side, Black Cat Alley is an open-air art gallery that feels like a hidden gem. Born from the creative minds of local artists and community members between 2015 and 2016, this artistic haven was brought to life in collaboration with Wallpapered City LLC, thanks to the support of the East Side BID. Today, it showcases 21 stunning murals crafted by 24 talented artists hailing from cities like Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Columbus, and even as far as Berlin.

Strolling through the alley, you'll be captivated by the vibrant colors and intricate designs that adorn the walls. Each mural tells its own story, adding a burst of creativity to the urban landscape. It's a perfect spot to snap some Instagram-worthy photos or simply soak in the artistic energy. The alley's atmosphere is constantly evolving, making every visit a fresh experience. Plus, being just a stone's throw from the bustling East Side, you can easily explore nearby cafes or shops to round out your day.
