Calgary: The Connaught Mural Walking Tour｜Canada

BUMP is run by a small, but powerful team of creatives, passionate about sharing public art with the community. Experience the electricity of an art festival and the inspiration of an artist talk, packaged with the ease of a guided tour.

Explore Calgary's Connaught Neighbourhood with us and experience a blend of inner-city life and heritage charm. Connaught combines residential buildings, parks, and shops in a neighborhood celebrated for walkability. The tour will kick-off at Thomson Family Park, just off of the bustling 17th AVE. BUMP muralists have been transforming this neighbourhood for nearly a decade, with unique and thought-provoking art.

Join one of our passionate tour guides on a journey through art as bold and powerful as the Canadian wilderness; with painted mountain lions, bears and birds that look ready to jump out of enormous walls. Feel inspired by artists' messages to protect our natural environment, celebrate our differences, and fight against oppression. Imagine a new paradigm of Calgary, with images that challenge the stereotypical narratives and iconography of the City.

Based in 8 years of experience in mural installation and art activations, this tour will ignite your passion for public art. Join us for an urban adventure through the Connaught Neighbourhood, and see the city through the eyes of the artists bringing our streets to life.
