Vancouver Street Art Tour & Coffee Workshop

On this street art tour in Vancouver, we'll discover colourful murals and enjoy a coffee workshop.

Description

We'll meet at the indicated time in Olympic Village Square, next to The Birds sculpture, ready to explore Vancouver's colourful murals.

Before admiring the urban works of art, we'll visit a local bar for an artisan coffee workshop. An expert will conduct a lesson on coffee bean roasting and share facts about this beverage.

At the end of the workshop, we'll enjoy a coffee from the establishment before starting our walk to view the city's murals. We'll start by discussing the difference between graffiti and artistic murals, focusing on the latter as expressions of socio-cultural significance.

Following a brief introduction, we will walk to the murals in Mount Pleasant, known for its alternative shops and restaurants, where we will admire several urban murals and attempt to interpret the symbolism conveyed by the artists.

Finally, we will stop for a beer before returning to the initial meeting point three hours after the tour's start.
