Sharswood & Brewerytown Black History Mural Tour

Black History Month is a time to honor the stories, achievements, and cultural impact of Black communities, both past and present. Across Philadelphia, murals serve as powerful public tributes not only to local history but also to the community stories that surround it.

Last week, the Indego team biked this route through Sharswood and Brewerytown. We found ourselves pausing at nearly every stop, moved by the scale of the murals, the depth of their stories, and the artistry and creativity woven into each one.

This bike route invites you to explore those same stories, connecting vibrant works of art that celebrate Black leaders, local voices, and the spirit of community. Whether you are a lifelong resident or a first-time visitor, this ride offers a meaningful way to experience the city through the lens of creativity, remembrance, and recognition.
