10 artists have painted 14 murals on the streets that are north of the Colonial City. The murals stand out in areas plagued by transport chaos, ambulatory vendors and crowds of people. They can be seen at Avenida Duarte and Av. Paris in Villa Francisca, a short walk north from the Colonial City.
The urban art comes to us thanks to the Hoy Villa Francisca initiative that began in 2015 in the Santa Bárbara area, also north of the Colonial City.
The artists painted facades of houses and apartments from 25 June to 1 July 2018, some 15 murals in total, with the backing of Modafoca in alliance with the city government of the National District (ADN), the Association of Stores of the Duarte Avenue (AsoDuarte) and private companies.
Mayor David Collado visited the area while the painters were at work. He highlighted that the city government will continue to back efforts such as this one that highlight culture, cleanliness and love for the barrio and serve to attract tourism to these populous sectors.
