Babe Walls, one of the latest additions to the booming Front Range mural scene, will return for its second year in 2021, spotlighting 26 artists working on more than a dozen murals.
The 2020 edition, which was bumped by COVID-19 regulations and ultimately took place in Westminster in August, showcased multiple murals by women and nonbinary artists painting on an apartment complex. This year, the four-day festival will take over Ralston Creek Trail in the City of Arvada from July 15 through July 18. The trail, the longest in Arvada, takes bikers and walkers alongside Ralston Creek and through city parks and open spaces.
"We're really excited to be partnering with the City of Arvada for this year's celebration," says festival founder and artist Alexandrea Pangburn. "The location along the Ralston Creek Trail is a new venture, and we're excited to be adding to the creativity of the city to encourage the use of this public trail."
