Call for Artists! Parks for All Mural Project
Monday, August 29, 2022 at 3:54PM
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board and Forecast Public Art seek artists to develop murals to foster Parks for All. There will be 9 artists selected to create murals in 2023. The deadline to apply is September 19, 2022, and selected artists will received a $6,000 fee + $3,000 for materials (to include artist travel).
The 9 mural locations have been selected based on the following goals: to help reduce the amount of vandalism in the park system; to reduce reactionary maintenance efforts required for tagging removal; to beautify park walls, and to celebrate the park system and park users. There are specific sites in the MPRB system that are frequent targets for vandalism that require countless hours of labor each year to remove and repaint.
