🎨✨ Sioux City’s alleys are alive with color! Alley Art Festival transforms these spaces into vibrant galleries filled with murals by local artists — including a very special annual community mural for all ages.
🖌️ Alley Art Festival 2025 may have wrapped this past weekend, but the creativity isn’t over! While the festival lasts only a day, anyone can enjoy this unique art year-round, and murals are still being painted into October. Simply stroll the alleys between Pierce & Nebraska and 4th & 6th Streets to experience it.
Keep this one-of-a-kind event — complete with music, art vendors, and children’s activities — on your radar for next year!
