Bringing Walls to Life: The 2nd Annual Spring Mural Jam at PHX JAX

The walls are calling—and on Saturday, April 19th, 2025, over 40 muralists, graffiti writers, and street artists from across the region will answer.

We’re thrilled to announce the return of the PHX JAX Spring Mural Jam, a one-day celebration of color, creativity, and community in Jacksonville’s Phoenix Arts & Innovation District. Hosted in partnership with our friend and fellow artist, Elena Øhlander, founder of Jax Wall Project, this annual event is more than a festival—it’s a movement. From 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM, the the Legacy Building (2404 Hubbard Street), 14th Street Walls (between Market and Hubbard Streets) and our Interior Art Park will be transformed into a vibrant outdoor gallery with live mural painting, artful expression, and neighborhood energy.

Last year’s inaugural Jam brought together artists and locals in an unforgettable celebration of public art and place-making. It sparked something special—and this year, we’re doubling down. The 2025 Mural Jam will elevate the voices of local and regional creators, foster community connections, and continue the momentum of revitalization in our corner of Jacksonville.

Visitors are invited to wander the district, meet the artists in action, and witness the incredible transformation of blank walls into bold statements. You’ll catch works in progress from talent like Mike Mcintire, ZULUPAINTER, Tracie Thompson, MyahnArt, Tiffypaints, Trudy Tran, Gene Gonzalez, Kenski, Kever Ones, Ganes, ESH, Metamorphvic, Werms, ISOR ONE, and many many more—each bringing their own unique voice, vision, and story to share.

We’re grateful to our generous sponsors—including Wingard, The Block Skate Company, Kingdom Clothing Co, Rogers Towers, 1748 Bakehouse, Sherwin Williams, Zibra Brushes, and Sun Belt, who’ve made this event possible. Artists will find food, beverages, and a welcoming home base at 2404 Hubbard Street, while the public can experience a cultural celebration that’s free and open to all. Naked Kitchen will be cooking up tasty food (available for purchase) for all to enjoy! The Blacker the Coffee will be releasing their newest signature blend and slanging coffee. PLUS Fishweir Brewing will have an assortment of their tasty beers.

Visitors will also have the chance to shop vendor booths from Wolf & Cub, and Kingdom Clothing Company and The Block.

Whether you’re a longtime art lover, a curious first-timer, or just looking for something inspiring to do on a spring Saturday, come be part of something bigger than paint on a wall. Come see what happens when art meets heart right here in the Phoenix Arts & Innovation District in North Springfield.
