The mural at Avo, a vegan restaurant on Charlotte, shows up a fair amount on social media. It helps that it’s across the street from the Off the Wall project, which packs together fourteen high-quality murals in one place. Anyone doing a serious mural tour of Nashville will definitely check that group out, and they won’t be able to miss the raining avocados across the street. Also, its fun, poppy design naturally lends itself to lots and lots of Instagram–ready photos. Now the mural isn’t signed, but if you dig deep on Avo’s Instagram page, you’ll find a picture of the artist hard at work and credited as @moldymonk – a link which is dead. Good thing I recognized that handle because Seth Prestwood has changed his IG handle to @sayyyeth. And then it clicked – Prestwood also did the very first piece of the Off the Wall project! (That link has links in it to all my posts on the series.) Anyway, go get your Instagram shot and definitely eat your veggies.
Located at 3 City Boulevard #200. The mural is on the north side of the building and faces a large parking lot that lies on the 3000 block of Charlotte Avenue.
