You may wonder is this a Drive-In, is it a Self-Guided Tour, or is this an Art Gallery? Actually, it’s all 3!

Once you download the app and enable your location settings, you can enter an array of digital curations of popular murals in the area.

A map will highlight where each mural is located to help you get there while allowing you to tap in to view photos and videos of the different creations, as well as listen to narrations to learn more such as when the piece was created, who the artist behind the work was, and much more.

You don't even have to leave your car, but you might want to if you need some fresh shots for your Insta-feed. It's basically a free art safari that could make for a fun and affordable date with your boo, or a solo socially distanced escape to explore St. Pete's creativity.
