The Banksy Museum, the home to the world's largest collection of Banksy’s life-sized murals and artwork, is now open at 227 Canal Street in SoHo.
Displaying over 160 works by the world's most famous-yet-anonymous street artist, The Banksy Museum recreates the revolutionary and often ephemeral art that Banksy has painted on surfaces in London, Bristol, Paris, Venice, Bethlehem, New York, Los Angeles, and beyond.
Visitors to the museum will immerse themselves in an environmental experience, giving viewers access to Banksy creations, much of which has long since been whitewashed or dismantled. Beyond the iconic street art, the exhibition also features some of the artist's studio work, as well as animated visual and video elements.
Tickets are now available online at MuseumBanksy.com and on site at the museum.
