Review & FAQ:

The El Punto neighborhood of Salem is where you will find the Punto Urban Art Museum. A mostly open-air museum, the art on display is all about interesting murals which cover the walls of several buildings. There are no fewer than 75 large-scale murals to admire, most of which have been designed specifically to integrate neighborhoods and to break down the barriers imposed by socio-economic circumstances. The campaign started in 1978 and showcases work by 25 local artists and 40 global artists. The best way to appreciate the meaning of all the art installations is to join a guided tour.
