Aruba Mural Tours

The Aruba Art Fair initiative, helmed by founder and organizer Oscar "Tito" Bolivar and his enthusiastic team, was officially inaugurated in 2016. ARTISA gallery (Aruba Art Fair's headquarters) offered a glimpse of the island's flourishing art scene in the often forgotten historical centre of San Nicolas. Since then, the streets are bustling with local and international art, including some impressive murals and sculptures in unexpected corners. This new boost of urban art not only beautifies the city, it brings the island, cultures, ideas together, and a steady stream of curious spectators and art collectors. Although the Aruba Art Fair is a yearly event, the art exhibition is permanent. Visitors interested in San Nicolas' art scene have the following options: the Art Walk Tour downtown, to visit the curated murals by established and up-and-coming artists, or the Museum & Art Tour, which includes a visit to the Museum of Industry.
