Bo'ai Art Street Introduction
Located on Boai Street in Yonghe District, New Taipei City, the "New Taipei City Yonghe Arts Education Development Association" was initiated by several retired teachers who had expectations for community development. The goal is to integrate art into daily life and bring it into the neighborhood. This 500-meter-long Boai Art Street has become increasingly rich in cultural atmosphere, transforming through a special street construction plan. The best urban art should not just remain at the museum level but should also take to the streets, or let the streets become art. A specially paved pedestrian walkway extends from Yonghe Road to the end of the street at the Yonghe Branch of Chang Jung Christian University, featuring rust-red roofs and white wall segments adorned with artistic floral arches and windows. There are also over 20 large reproductions of paintings by local artist Yang San-Liang installed along the walls. The museum of artist Yang San-Liang quietly sits in the middle of the street. Here, you can stroll along the beautiful, shaded Phoenix trees or enter the museum to appreciate its rich collection of paintings. In the tranquil alleys, there are many little surprises awaiting your personal discovery.
