The 2017 Boon Street Art Festival featured a dynamic mix of local, national, and international artists, including notable names like neo-pop muralist Ahsin and multimedia creators such as Askew One, Mica Still, and Techs. These artists brought their unique styles and perspectives to Hamilton’s urban canvas, painting bold and imaginative murals across key locations in the city. Murals were created on prominent walls throughout the central business district, transforming previously blank or neglected spaces into vibrant works of art. Notable sites included walls along Alexandra Street and Victoria Street, as well as various public buildings and laneways, turning the heart of Hamilton into an open-air gallery that invited community interaction and celebration of creative expression.
