Lovebot went to Montreal for MuralFest 2015

He was spotted all over town!

Alice’s wonderland mural

Posted on June 16, 2016 by Mary C

In an alley near rue Mont Royal and rue Saint Denis is a mural based on the characters from the story of Alice in Wonderland – the white rabbit worrying about the time, a grinning cheshire cat who rises above it all, human playing cards, and a dopey looking hookah smoking caterpillar. (photos spring 2015)
