Quebec - Montreal Street Art


Montreal has a lively street art scene and even holds an annual mural festival. Here are several of the murals we found in our walks around the city.


One of two murals of Montreal native son Leonard Cohen











































Another Leonard Cohen mural







Mural of Jackie Robinson, who lived in Montreal and played for the AAA Montreal Royals before being called up to the Brooklyn Dodgers, thus breaking the color barrier. Montreal was something of a safe haven from the harassment and racism he and his family experienced in the US.
