I Art Woodstock

Cape Town


The sketchy grid of streets off Albert Rd is a canvas for some amazing street art, much of it created during a collaborative project between street artists and Adidas Originals in 2011. More pieces have been added since such as Raised By Wolves by Nardstar, and the Freedom Day Mural by Freddy Sam.
