City of Amarillo Kicking Off Mural Grant Program

The City of Amarillo is kicking off their Mural Grant Program through the Beautification and Public Arts Advisory Board.

The City will allocate $30,000 among five geographic areas, the four quadrants of the city plus the Central Business District, and the maximum possible reimbursement will be $6,000 in each geographic area.

An applicant that invests $5,000 on a mural may receive reimbursement of up to $2,500.

The Mural Grant Program is a vital part of the City’s goal to enhance appearance, increase employment opportunities in the arts, raise awareness and appreciation of the value of art, create civic pride, reduce blight and encourage tourism.

A Mural Grant packet is available online at www.amarillo.gov under “City Initiatives.” or by an email to [email protected].
