FREE STREET ART TOUR
A free guided tour of some of the city centre’s prominent pieces of street art has been
organised by Peterborough Positive to launch their new pocket map celebrating the growing
collection of artwork that brightens the city centre.
Street art fans will be able to book onto one of two tours led by Nathan Murdoch, Tony
Nero, Peterborough Civic Society and Peterborough Positive. The tours will give people the
opportunity to understand why specific designs were chosen, explore the creative process
behind each piece, and learn more about the history of the locations where the artwork has
been created.
Pep Cipriano, Chief Operating Officer at Peterborough Positive, said:
“Street art has become an important part of our city centre’s identity. This new map makes it easier than ever for people to explore these vibrant works and appreciate the cultural history and creativity behind them. “We are excited to launch the map with a free guided tour alongside artists Nathan Murdoch and Tony Nero, and the Peterborough Civic Society, showcasing how street art has transformed everyday city centre spaces into cultural landmarks. The tour gives people the chance to hear the stories behind the designs directly from the artists and learn more about what inspired them.”
Printed maps can be collected from the Tourist Information Centre at Peterborough
Museum and Art Gallery, the Town Hall, and a digital version is available to download from
the Peterborough Positive website.
The guided tours will take place at 10.30 am on Saturday 28th February and Saturday 25th
April. For more information and to book tickets, click below.
