Long Beach Walls is week-long, city-wide event that takes place in the summer throughout Long Beach and is part of the globally recognized Worldwide Wide Walls series of street art events, which since 2010 has brought murals to public spaces in cities like Honolulu, Seoul, Washington DC, Taipei and Tokyo. The core of our mission is to bring art and culture to public spaces while beautifying the city of Long Beach and cultivating community pride. 

We bring together international and local artists to create murals and other forms of art and music. While the murals are the centerpiece of the Long Beach Walls activities, there’s much more to this street art festival than paint and aerosol cans. The festivities are filled with museum exhibitions, mural tours, artist talks, workshops, block parties and concerts.

Since 2015, Long Beach Walls, formerly known as POW! WOW! Long Beach, has executed over 120+ murals in over 40 square miles of Long Beach, creating a walkable bikeable public art experience unlike anything else in the country. This has put Long Beach on the map for cultural influencers across greater LA and beyond!
