Commission a mural
We connect Colorado’s top mural artists with businesses, property owners, schools, and organizations, handling everything from artist selection through final documentation.
Why property owners work with a nonprofit instead of an app.
We select artists whose style, experience, and background fit your project, neighborhood, and community values.
From first conversation to final coat of sealer: artist coordination, design approvals, site prep, permit support, documentation.
As a 501(c)(3), we’re invested beyond the transaction. Every project strengthens Colorado’s arts economy and pays working artists.
Documenting and supporting Denver’s art scene since 2011. We know the artists, the neighborhoods, and the culture.
Stakeholder input and neighborhood outreach, so murals reflect the people who live and work nearby.
Every project is professionally photographed, archived, and promoted across our channels, amplifying your investment beyond the wall.
Five steps. We respond to briefs within two business days; site visits are free in the Denver metro.
Location, wall size, budget range, timeline, style preferences, and any community context we should know.
We assess surface, logistics, and access, then deliver a written proposal with scope, artist recommendation, timeline, and budget.
The artist develops concept sketches rooted in your brief. We run review rounds and fold in stakeholder or community input.
We coordinate scheduling, materials, equipment, and safety so the artist can focus on the work.
Professional photography, final records, and archive. Promoted across our channels and documented for grant reporting.
