Today this is the first post about the series on the street art festival Canettes de Ruelle, third edition which takes place in the neighborhood of Rosemont Petite Patrie in Montréal. I had never been to the festival but given the quality of the murals, I'll be present for the next edition :-)

Great pieces of art, that's for sure. Colorful, beautiful work. Hard to choose a favoutite... thanks for sharing :)
Very cool Street Art Festival with many murals in a small area.
Nice artworks, I definitly have to come to Montreal one day!
Yep great city for Street Art : a very active underground scene with mainstream festivals (Mural Festival, Under Pressure, Canettes de Ruelle...).
It must be great to meet those pieces of art when you walk down the street.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.
Always better than a gray wall :-)... In this case, this murals are in alleys where many children play. A little color 'it's good for the imagination and develop an artistic approach.
