Noisy Waters makes murals. For this event, world-renowned muralists gather each summer in Bellingham, WA for a weekend of mural painting, demos, music, parties, education, and inspiration.
Voted on by the public, the winners of Noisy Waters then return the following year to paint their prize wall murals around the city of Bellingham. Beloved by the community from its very first year, this festival was designed, year by year, to put Bellingham on the map as a street art destination known around the world.
It's also an all-weekend summer festival for the whole family, with live music, kids' activities, an upcycled fashion show, mural tours by bike, outdoor yoga, interactive art, food, vendors, and far more.
