The Journey of a Juggler: Mission Murals

Gabriel Alves de Lima

For this outing of The Journey of the Juggler, my sister and I went to San Francisco’s Mission District. More specifically, we went to a small alleyway in The Mission famous for its murals. Balmy Alley has always been one of my favorite parts of the city because of its location: The Mission is noisy and busy, but the second you turn into Balmy Alley, it’s a secluded collection of beautiful murals. Because of the bright colors and generally playful aesthetic of this alley, I figured it would be a great place for a juggling video. Enjoy!
