The Mural Arts Program includes members of the community in every step of the mural-making process, from selecting a theme to collaborating on a design, to creating the mural and celebrating its completion.
BECAUSE OF THIS EXTENSIVE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT process, neighborhood murals become a living part of the community long after the project is completed. Many of murals actually start as requests from communities through the mural request form. You can fill out the form online, or download a paper copy here.
We strive to have our mural projects represent collaboration. The mural-making process builds lasting community relationships, bringing together people whose paths might otherwise never have crossed. When diverse community members have joined together to promote the community, the finished mural celebrates their collective creative force.
