Public Mural Project
Festival Park
We are looking to commission an artist to design and create a mural for a public space within the Downtown Suffolk area. The artwork will attract the attention of attendees at the Downtown Festival Park located 215 W. Washington St., Suffolk, VA 23434. This new park invites families to enjoy music, festivals, movies, and a celebration of the arts in the heart of downtown Suffolk. We are currently requesting donations from the community to help us fund this big project. If you would like to donate to our mural fund, please click below. We appreciate your contribution in helping us beautify our downtown area!
Festival Park Mural Dimensions:
- Full Mural Space: 140ft. x 20ft. height on ends and middle wall 14ft. height
- Approximately 2,380 sq. ft.
-Wall has recently been prepped and painted.
Size/Medium: The artwork will be large enough to be seen from the road and provide a fun,
colorful backdrop to the festival park.
Theme/Style: The selection committee is open to various themes and styles, but with an
understanding that it reflects Suffolk, and what the festival park represents.
Calendar:
Spring 2025.
It is our hope that this is the first of many murals to be created in downtown Suffolk! Watch for additional calls for proposals!
