Those who live in East Nashville know that changes are happening. In the midst of growth, murals are popping up in some of the most unique places. Armed with my cell phone camera and my family, we hit the town to collect as many Nashville mural photos as we could. We found murals on fences, on buildings, in alleyways, and on curbs along the sidewalk. They come in all shapes and sizes and are painted by different artists. This little elephant appears on the curb as you drive down South 14th Street. Seeking out murals provided a fun treasure hunt for my daughter.
The below murals were found in the East Nashville area. See the description for their locations. There are more murals out there, and more are being made every day. So keep your eyes open for new additions to the Nashville landscape!
