The City of Grand Junction and the Commission on Arts and Culture are calling for artists to create an original mural design for the swimming pools at the new Community Recreation Center, currently under construction.

Deadline to submit proposals is May 30, and the digital-design files must be submitted by July 16. Detailed information about submitting proposals is available on the city’s website, gjcity.org.

The design should incorporate water elements and utilize the color palette outlined in the call. The final submission will be a digital-design file that will be printed and installed by a specialized vendor. Artists have a two-month period to assemble their proposals.

Interested artists are encouraged to apply by submitting a letter of interest, resume, proposal, design sketches and annotated images of original representative work. The selection panel will consist of representatives from the City of Grand Junction and the Grand Junction Commission on Arts and Culture.

Funding for this project comes from the city’s One Percent for the Arts Program.
