Get matched →There are two options to create an art mural in Portland.
Proposals can be submitted by 5:00PM on the third Wednesday of every month. The approval process takes approximately 4-6 weeks, and proposals are reviewed by the Public Art Murals Program Committee.
For a project to qualify for RACC approval, property owners are required to provide a signed/notarized Art Easement Form that is recorded with Multnomah County. Murals approved through this program become part of the City’s public art collection for as long as the Art Easement remains in effect.
Artists may apply for a $50 Original Art Mural Permit through the City’s Bureau of Development Services, which has different requirements.
