Butterworth Art Walk

Butterworth Art Walk is an outdoor street art gallery located in Lorong Bagan Luar 1, Butterworth, Seberang Perai Utara, Penang, near the Butterworth Ferry Terminal and Penang Sentral. Launched as part of a town revitalization initiative, it features large-scale murals and wall paintings by local artists depicting the history, culture and daily life of Butterworth. The open-air alley is a free public attraction notable for photography and heritage interpretation.

Visitors can expect an open-air alleyway lined with colorful large-scale murals and wall art on building facades. The walk is outdoors and pedestrian-friendly, with artworks depicting local history, traditional trades, cultural scenes and community life. Visitors can walk along the lane, view and photograph the murals at close range, read interpretive panels, and explore the surrounding streets of old Butterworth near the waterfront.

Butterworth Art Walk was created in 2016 as part of a revitalization project for old Butterworth led by the Seberang Perai City Council (MBSP) with local artists. The murals were commissioned to document and celebrate the town's history as a transport and trading hub and to rejuvenate the heritage streets around Lorong Bagan Luar.

The art walk showcases local cultural heritage through murals that portray traditional occupations, festivals, community life and historical scenes of Butterworth and Seberang Perai, serving as a public cultural interpretation space for visitors and residents.
