London Street Art Tour
Explore the Street Art in East London’s ‘Outdoor Gallery’
A London Street Art Tour is unmissable because…
Shoreditch in London’s East End was once the most deprived area in the city. It was where the immigrants who arrived poor and hungry first settled. Today it is home to trendy bars and restaurants, high-end shops, curry houses, and hi-tech start-ups. However, the area is still a highly multicultural place as well as being hipster central. It is also the district of London where the finest street artists come to create. It is a scene that constantly changes. New works go up daily; old works are painted over by other artists or removed by the authorities. Some artists’ names will be familiar to you, others are less well known. All work out on the street to create some of the most distinctive, exciting and dramatic works.
