Migratory muralists return
to Atlantic City:

Atlantic City's vibrant art scene received an extraordinary boost this August with the return of three acclaimed muralists, each leaving an indelible mark on our city's public spaces. Denton Burrows, Evan Lovett, and Felipe Ortiz installed murals that enrich our cultural landscape while also highlighting the significance of public art in fostering community and identity, drawing inspiration from the people and the wildlife that call Atlantic City home. With the rehabilitation of a beloved classic and the reinstallation of two stunning works, we celebrate making them accessible to all once more. Keep reading on our blog.
