Fun spot with a mural that is part of a national series. You have to be a bit lucky with where cars are parked, as there are parking spots directly in front of the mural.
There are a couple of different murals equally worth seeing in the immediate vicinity!

Awesome unique artists and works, intimate space and wonderful curator to learn about artists that cross street and traditional art
6 The B_Line (Hubbard Street Murals)

This was one of my favorite art spots on my whirlwind tour of Chicago. The murals are big and beautiful; there are so many different artists and styles that everyone can find ones they like. There is no sidewalk along the murals so you’ll have to walk in the bushes or bike lane to see them all.

A free museum that is predicated on vantage points. Just keep looking up and there is no doubt that you'll see stunning pieces of art. Murals and dedications adorn the streets, while Chicago's history is slowly fading from building facades. Most difficult will be remembering where the piece is and where you were standing.
9 Fulton Street Collective

Fulton Street Collective is a valuable art hub for the City of Chicago. They are outstanding at curating exhibits and providing concerts. It is wonderful how they have still been able to support the art community despite the challenges that COVID-19 brought with gathering. Chris Anderson is the owner and he is an outstanding person to collaborate with. All of the FSC staff members are kind, helpful, and skilled people. I highly recommend the shows, musicians, and artists that entertain through the Fulton Street Collective. I have had great experiences there!

12 Vivian Maier Mural

If you have an interest in street art you need to visit this spot. The mural of the mysterious Ms. Maier is extremely well done and begs to be photographed. Be forewarned, though, that this is a very busy section of Chicago. Being that it's only a sidewalk's width from North Avenue,
it is best viewed from across the street, requiring you to find parking.
13 Wabash Arts Corridor

These murals beatify an otherwise null and void space in the South Loop of Downtown Chicago. They're an awesome addition that speaks to the culture vibrancy you don't always see in this part of Chicago. Wabash Arts Corridor is an ongoing project.
