Walking Tours

Urban Trees Exhibition

The Port's Public Art Program conceived this temporary exhibit to punctuate and activate the postcard views of San Diego Bay and invite people to stroll along and enjoy the pedestrian promenade.

The current exhibit, Urban Trees 6, features 30 trees from 30 artists and range from serious to lighthearted, whimsical to abstract. What many have in common is that they are kinetic, attracting attention as they move with the wind.

Download an interactive map of the trees to your phone, or text message special codes found at each Urban Tree to learn more about them. The exhibit can be seen along the bayside of Harbor Drive between the Cruise Ship Terminal and Harbor drive.

This fun art walk is well worth a visit!
