Woodmont Avenue Parking Garage Mural

The Bethesda Arts & Entertainment District, Bethesda Urban Partnership and Montgomery County’s Department of Transportation are thrilled to announce that Baltimore-based artist Megan Lewis was been selected to complete the first mural on a public parking garage.

The mural will encompass the front and right-hand side of the Montgomery County public parking garage located at 8216 Woodmont Avenue in downtown Bethesda.

Megan has embarked on major mural projects with the Baltimore Orioles, Target, Life Wter, University of Maryland Medical System, Doritos and the Maryland Transportation Authority’s Baltimore Metro subway system.
