MEET DREW BORDERS

Drew Borders is a muralist, illustrator, and 2D animator based in Atlanta, GA whose work is driven by a powerful commitment to representation, joy, and the celebration of Black and Brown culture. A graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design with a B.F.A. in Animation — Magna Cum Laude — her formal training gives her murals a distinctive character-driven energy that sets her apart in the street art world.

Her work has taken her across Atlanta, Charlotte, New York City, Oklahoma City, Miami, and internationally to Bali, Indonesia.

Her client roster includes Verizon, AT&T Dream in Black, Coca-Cola Co. x ABV Gallery, Coco Gauff x New Balance, the Atlanta Beltline, Lakewood Amphitheater, the National Black Arts Festival, SCAD Serve, Bedstuy Walls in Brooklyn, Camp North End in Charlotte, and the AWALLS Mural Project in Miami.
