Exiting the Jefferson Avenue stop of the L Train is like walking into an outdoor art gallery. This area of Brooklyn is Bushwick and it best known for its street art. The collection of murals in this area even has a name:
The Bushwick Collective
The Bushwick Collective is the largest display of street art in NYC. If you love urban art, it’s a must-see.
This is just a small sampling of what I saw on a 15 minute walk around the area of Jefferson Ave. There’s literally awesome art around every corner and much of it frequently changes.
You never know exactly what you’ll see, but you can count on COLOR. Which is still in short supply in NYC!
So many different artists, so many different styles.
What’s your favorite, which are you drawn too?
I will always have a special place in my heart for a badass pirate babe. The bunny buccaneer flag makes me even hoppier happier.
For more murals and a little more info on the Bushwick Collective, check out my post from the first time I ever visited this area:
This is so cool!! I really need to go back. If you find yourself in London, I can take you of a walk of our street art!!

These are incredible, I love the colour. I think the 2nd and 5th are my favourites, they’re the most colourful!
