We all know the Machne Yehuda Market, with its stalls, spice shops, colors, sounds, flavors and atmosphere unique only to Jerusalem. But, as the sun sets and the peddlers close the stalls and shops’ blinds, a whole world of colorful street art is revealed, incorporating famous Jerusalemite figures from both past and present.
Discover the hidden face of the Machne Yehuda Market with an exciting nighttime tour through the graffiti art and amazing murals, echoing the market’s nightlife scene and serving as the perfect backdrop. We will start the tour with the famous murals of the Cite de la creation group – from Lyon, France – at Agripas, whose art decorate many walls around the city. We’ll immerse in the market’s atmosphere and tour the lively bars, linger by the art decorating the metal blinds of the storefronts with vivid colors, and get to know the artists behind them.
Between the alleyways of the market and the nearby Yaffo street, we will discover many more graffities, sketches, poetry and quotes decorating the walls, electricity boxes and bars. We’ll learn the differences between graffiti and street art, hear about how the market became a nightly street museum and find the connection between the artists and their art to the Jerusalem experience; through the inspiring characters, alleys, stories, the market’s nightlife and the encounter with a complex and unique human mosaic.
