Instagram Walls of Anchorage

It’s no secret that Alaska is one of the most Instagramable states... Anchorage, the region’s largest city, is no different! Treat this article as your treasure map to some of the most photogenic spots in the city. These murals all in their own unique way, show off the majesty and natural beauty that our state has to offer. So bring along your camera, favorite filter, and biggest smile for our tour of Anchorage’s Best Instagram Walls! 

Location: 111 W 6th Ave, Anchorage, AK


Notes: The fun and funky SEED Lab building is an Instagramers dream. Both the interior and exterior of the building serve as a revolving canvas for mural artists. Guest artists at the lab will periodically cover up existing murals, and paint brand new ones. In the photo below, note the shadow of the “It Is Possible” mural, covered up by the current stained glass-esque piece. 

Artists: Thomas Chung and UAA student artists 

Location: 406 E 5th Ave, Anchorage, AK 


Notes: Portraying some of Alaska's most charismatic marine creatures, this mural makes for a picture perfect Instagram background. Ringing in at a whopping 5 stories high and 120 meters long, it affirms the famous saying “everything is bigger in Alaska!” Its calm and cool color palate will bring a chill vibe into your Instagram feed.

Notes: A close second behind Fishe Wears Instagram wall, this mural is a sight to behold!
