The City outlines murals as artistic representations that are, typically, a one-of-a-kind, hand-painted, hand-tiled, or digitally printed image on the exterior wall of a building that does not contain any commercial message (i.e., does not advertise a business). When carefully developed and approved, murals enhance the City’s aesthetic value, sense of place and wellbeing. Murals can also serve to introduce and welcome visitors to the City while illustrating the City’s past, present and vision for the future.
The checklist below is intended to provide a general overview on how to install a mural that will benefit the community, artists and building/property owner.
