The Inaugural Volta Garage Murals

CENTRAL EASTSIDE, PORTLAND

PSAA is excited to announce a new project at the Electric Blocks! The Volta Garage contains 10 walls that will rotate art periodically, similar to those at Taylor Electric. These 10 new spots allow emerging and veteran artists a canvas to create new works.

For the inaugural set of murals, PSAA invited artists from a variety of styles and experience levels. Working together in a space like this offers artists to network and help each other out with logistics and supplies. Several of these murals also included artist mentorship programs, where the muralists have mentees assisting them, learning the process of mural making.

Thank you to all the artists that helped kick off this new space. We also thank the property owner Killian Pacific for supporting spaces for art across all of their sites. We are stoked to have another location where local artists can practice and showcase their craft!
