Thanks to the O Positive Festival, new murals in Kingston, NY are popping up almost every year. On October 5-7, 2018, the O+ Positive Festival took place and we welcomed this year’s new murals in Kingston. All of the new murals in Kingston were made with love and painted with Golden Paintworks mural paints. Continue below to see the beautiful new murals (and a few old favorites, too)!

Jess x Snow x Layqa Nuna Yawar
Survival Love Letter by Layqa Nuna Yawar and Jess x Snow is one of several powerful murals in Kingston that focus on identity and experience. Its uniqueness stems from the message that celebrates victims of sexual assault and their loved ones, not just in Kingston, but around the world.
