Call for Mural Proposals
We would like to award an artist $2,000 (plus $500 for materials) to paint a mural with us this spring!
We are very open to what this mural could look like. Possible themes incorporated could be Celebrating LGBTQIA+ and Black Lives Matter in our Community. Maybe there's an aspect of these that you are personally passionate about? Surprise us!
