INTRODUCTION 

The City of Pompano Beach will commission an artist for the design and installation of a mural that will be located in Artists Alley on an exterior wall located on the back of Bailey Contemporary Arts.

The Public Art Committee plans on installing two murals in 2019 in Artists Alley, continuing to beautify the alleyway, bringing the total amount of murals in this area to six.

THEME

There is no specific theme for this mural; however, the design should fit the location. The design should have a strong presence with a concept that is creative. A site visit is not required but is recommended. To view the murals that are currently installed in Artists Alley, please go to www.pbpublicart.com. The materials, design and palette must stand up to local weather and be amenable to ongoing maintenance.

Logos are not to be used. The selected artist must apply a UV resistant sealant to the finished product. The medium of spray paint is encouraged as the wall is textured.

PROJECT LOCATION

The mural will be located in Artists Alley on an exterior wall located on the back of Bailey Contemporary Arts, 41 NE 1st St, Pompano Beach, FL 33060. This City is continuing to its efforts to transform this alley into a mural alley entitled Artist Alley. There are two mural options for the artist.

Selected artist will be required to create a timelapse video of the mural as it develops.

The selected Artist will receive $3,000. The price will include all taxes, insurance and all other fees as well as any equipment the artist may need to complete the mural (i.e. cherry picker, paint, etc.). A UV resistant sealant must be applied.
