The Tucson Mural Program

On September 2018, the City of Tucson approved proposals from artists interested in produced murals in the downtown area.

The City of Tucson is devoted to producing a lively, safe and fascinating greater midtown. As we pursue that objective, it is a top priority to improve blighted areas, strengthen the regional culture, and also offer a visually-friendly atmosphere for locals and site visitors to eat, store, job, and also live.

The Tucson Mural Program is providing funding for murals that mirror variety in vogue as well as society. The program will certainly urge musicians from diverse backgrounds as well as experiences to use and use their concepts and also designs for these murals.

The Tucson Mural Program is a wonderful way for regional businesses to give back to the community and also boost the impact with economic sponsorship of the program. Sponsorship will expand the City’s initiatives to employ artists, spend for supplies, and offer all of the basics for successful execution of the program.

Defining mural art

A mural is a particular piece of art applied or painted directly onto a wall, ceiling, or other permanent surface. The characteristic distinguishing feature of murals is the integration of various architectural elements in the painted art. There are many forms of murals and each form is unique and appealing in its own way.

There are some common types of murals found in public places and establishments such as hotels, restaurants, bars, offices and shopping centers. There are also murals, which are created by private artists for their own personal use only. These murals are usually made of plywood and are then painted by hand with acrylic paints. They can be decorated using stencils or other temporary arts and crafts.
