Surprising, arousing, intriguing and arousing curiosity, this is the philosophy of "street art" that places art in public space, a space that belongs to all.

With a successful first edition that conquered Boulonnais and tourists, the City of Boulogne-sur-Mer embarks on a new summer under the sign of the creativity of local and international artists, embellished our city and your living environment thanks to their talent.
