Open Air Museum San Miguel

Open Air Museum San Miguel is an outdoor gallery featuring large-scale murals painted on residential buildings across several streets in the San Miguel neighborhood of Santiago's metropolitan area. The artworks cover facades throughout the district, creating a visual network that unfolds as you walk through the streets.

The collection emerged in 2010 as part of a municipal initiative to transform urban spaces through art and strengthen community connections. The project has developed into an ongoing feature of the neighborhood since then.

Each mural represents different aspects of Chilean society, from indigenous traditions to contemporary social movements, created by local and international artists.

The best way to explore the artworks is to walk through the neighborhood on foot and view the pieces in their original context. You can visit the gallery independently or join guided walking tours to learn more about individual works and the artists behind them.

The murals come from both local and international artists who bring their own perspectives and styles to the colorful images. This blend of different artistic traditions creates a distinctive visual experience throughout the neighborhood.
