About

This wonderful art district buzzes with activity and is filled with galleries, events, and independent shops. Walking around this art district visitors are treated to interesting sculptures, small hidden street art, and large-scale murals. 

Formerly a hub for industrial activity, the warehouses were abandoned after the city shifted away from this sector. A group of artists injected waves of creativity to get this place back up and running.

The art covers quite a large area and a few scattered warehouse complexes. It can be quite busy with tourists on the weekend around the main hubs.
