Geocache Description:


🎨 Annapolis Murals #1: A City Painted with Stories

 

Cache is not at the posted coordinates, but you will find another fascinating mural.

You must first complete the Adventure Lab: Annapolis Murals: A City Painted with Stories to obtain coordinates for this cache.

The Adventure Lab is the first in a series of tours of the murals that enrich the city. This lab is a walking tour and is approximately 1/2 mile along the Annapolis West Street Arts District. You can start anywhere, but I suggest you start at Church Circle and work your way west to Monticello Avenue. The Arts District is known for its striking murals that showcase the city’s heritage and creativity. This area is a hub for public art, with more than a dozen colorful works that reflect community and culture viewable from the street or a block or two off West Street. While it features only some of many murals in Annapolis, the district offers a glimpse into the city’s artistic spirit. The AL takes you to 5 murals that highlight why this area attracts both art enthusiasts and visitors.

There are several paid parking garages a block off West Street. Street parking restrictions and fees vary by neighborhood.

 

A mural map of West Street—only five are part of this Adventure Lab. Did you spot the others along your tour?

 


 

When you have completed the Adventure Lab you will have the 5 clue answers to complete this puzzle.  If you need to retrieve the clues later, you can reopen the adventure in the app, and view the journal entries for each of the 5 locations. Each clue is numbered.

Place the code words in order 1 to 5 into Certitude to get the coordinates for this bonus cache. For example, if the words are MURALS, CITY, PAINTED, WITH, STORIES (not the real code words) type them into certitude as: MURALS CITY PAINTED WITH STORIES

 

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

 

You will need a smartphone with data service and the Adventure Lab app installed.  You can install the app by going to https://labs.geocaching.com. Launch the adventure by opening the Adventure Lab app.
