Umbrella Alley - temporarily closed
The extremely popular Umbrella Alley is a collaborative installation, boasting over 120 umbrellas that form a colorful canopy shading a mural spanning 3 large walls that was painted by the Lee College Art Department and its students. This mural also contains a geocaching trackable code hidden in the artwork.
Cruisin W Texas Avenue Mural
The “Cruisin W Texas Avenue” mural is painted on the side of Bay Area Auto Gallery which is near Baytown’s historic oak tree that still stands in the middle of Texas Avenue today. This mural was painted by Armando Castelan and is a blast to the past that features classic cars and noteworthy Baytown icons like the Brunson Theater and Fred Hartman Bridge.
Boundless Knowledge Sculpture
The Boundless Knowledge sculpture, created by artist Deedee Morrison, stands as a landmark in tribute to the Sterling Municipal Library’s 50-year anniversary.
The Art Gallery building, home to the Art League of Baytown, features the largest mural we currently have in Baytown. This mural wraps from the front of the building and down the west wall. The artist used a trompe l’oeil painting style, which is French for “deceive the eye”. This mural takes a flat wall and makes it seem as if you are looking right into an art gallery! Other portions of the mural feature Art Deco style flares that reflect the original architecture of the building.
Texas, Barse Miller Mural
The historic Baytown Historical Museum building (formerly Federal Building / post office) houses an example of New Deal artwork: “Texas,” a fresco mural by Barse Miller. The mural was commissioned by the Treasury Section of Fine Arts. It was restored in 2011.
Art Walk Hours: Saturday, November 14 (only), 10am - 1pm
