We all know that Portland has a vibrant art scene — and we're not just talking about The Portland Art Museum or the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art. One of our all-time favorite galleries? Portland itself.

Rose City is home to hundreds of meaningful murals and street art pieces. Today, we're sharing where to find some of the pieces that paint a picture of our city.

"The Community Cycling Center Mural," 1700 NE Alberta St. | By Robin Corbo
A collaborative effort between the lead artist, assistant artists, and dozens of local volunteers led to this mural's creation in 2006. It showcases a variety of locomotion machines for children of all ages and physical abilities and was inspired by the building's nonprofit tenant, which provides bikes to those in need.

"Art Fills the Void," Southeast 12th Avenue and Division Street | By Gorilla Wallflare
This 30-by-50-ft painting of a bruised banana has a big story to tell. Created in 1982 by one of Portland's first anonymous "graffiti" art crews, it's known as the oldest mural in Portland and is a rare surviving example of street art from the decade. It was restored in 2015.
