Mural Arts Program

Our Mural Arts Program exists to make art available to all. Now entering its third year, the program uplifts and beautifies neighborhoods with mural art through creative partnerships with community organizations, youth groups, schools, and business districts. We pair professional artists with community members and youth groups to create large scale public works of art to last for years to come.
