Nashville Looks Good on You
2509 12th Avenue South: Map to Nashville Looks Good on you Wall Mural
The Nashville Looks Good On You wall mural was our first stop on our walking wall mural tour in Nashville. A perfect starting Instagram photo to represent the street art on 12 south in Nashville. It is hidden behind Moda Boutique and Frothy Monkey. You will need to turn down a long driveway that leads to a parking lot. The wall mural is at the back of the lot. Simple black wall, but we love the Nashville reference and definitely declare it as one of the best Nashville murals!
Looking Pretty Music City
2709 12th Avenue South: Map to Looking Pretty Music City Mural
A little further on the same side of the road and around the corner, we found this colorful Nashville street art wall mural of Looking Pretty Music City. Perfect photo stop for when you are all dressed up for a night out on the town.
Make Music Not War
2902 12th Avenue South Map to Make Music Mural
We crossed 12 South and walked along the other side for our next amazing sample of the 12 South Nashville murals. This street art mural features some records to spin in order to make some music. It is on the side of the EPICE Takeout building.
Vintage Flower Mural
2900 12th Avenue South Map to Wild Flower Mural
This colorful mural is across from Make Music Not War and on the side of the shop that is located there. Add a sprinkle of my three daughters and it becomes a Masterpiece of art!
Yellow Fox Wall Mural
2814 12th Avenue South Map to the Yellow Fox Art Mural
We saw this wild art display from far away as we were approaching it. It is bright vivid yellow and pops out at you. There are other animals pictured in this Nashville street art, but the fox peaking out at the corner is what caught my attention. You will need to stand far away to get the whole shot of this Nashville street art!
Halcyon Bike Shop
2802 12th Avenue South: Map to Halcyon Bike Shop Mural
This cyclist shop has gotten into the spirit of wall murals and has made my list of best murals in Nashville Tennessee. Their mural artistically decorates the side of the store quite appropriately with bikes and wheels.
I Believe in Nashville
2700 12th Avenue South: Map to I Believe in Nashville wall mural
This is one of the most famous murals in Nashville. There are other replicas at Nashville mural locations around the city, but the original street art calls 12 South its home. This street art is so famous that it has its own I Believe in Nashville Mural website.
Draper James Wall
2608 12th Avenue South: Map to Draper James Wall
Just a blue and white wall, but still so photogenic, and puts it on the list of Nashville Instagram murals. This wall is located on the side of Draper James, the fashionable clothing store founded by Reese Witherspoon, and is painted in blue and white stripes that are the color palette of the store. There is also a cute little white bench that is perfect for more snapshots. –or for hiding in the shade from the hot Nashville sun!
Cityscape
2316 12th Avenue South: Map to Cityscape
I found this mural while snacking on Jeni’s Splendid ice cream. It was across the street on an old abandoned building with a big parking lot in front of it. Here is the story of CityScape’s artist here.
Enjoy all the famous murals in Nashville!
We could have spent hours on 12 South looking at all the colorful Nashville street art. The 104-degree heat got the better of us that day and we decided to take a break to go swimming at the campground. We did enjoy our brief walk down 12 South and definitely filled our Instagram feed for quite a few days with many artistic wall murals in Nashville!

Proud pappa on the wall flower mural and I like Michelle in the one Make Music not War! Love you guys!
Awe, Thanks!!!
We were traveling to Nashville over the 4th, but the event we were going to was cancelled. So sad. But, maybe next year. I love these murals. So much fun.
We were there a week before you! My daughter is interning there so we went to see her and then stopped at a few murals.
I would really love to go on a road trip next year. You clearly had so much fun and I’d love to experience that too.
This looks like an awesome thing to explore In Nashville during the day. Thanks so much for adding the addresses and pictures! That really helps so much!
