Returning for its ninth year, the SHINE St. Petersburg Mural Festival once again ignites the City of the Arts with a diverse collection of public art from renowned local, national and international mural artists. The festival, which has received widespread international attention, is an outdoor art exhibition aimed at celebrating art for art’s sake.
During SHINE 2023 presented by REFLECTION, 14 new murals plus a series of Bright Spot community mural projects will be added to the art districts and surrounding neighborhoods of St. Petersburg’s downtown.
