The Richmond Mural Project Needs Blank Walls

by | May 1, 2014 | COMMUNITY

Art Whino, the group responsible for the Richmond Mural Project, are looking for blank walls to mural-ize.

Art Whino, the group responsible for the Richmond Mural Project, are looking for blank walls to mural-ize. This year will be the project’s third year in Richmond and they’re hoping to put up 20+ murals in Richmond by summer’s end.

If you know of any walls which would be perfect for a mural (even your own!), shoot an email to Shane Pomajambo at shane@artwhino.com, and they’ll handle the rest. Muralists will be working from June 16th to the 27th, and they’ve done an incredible job each of the past two summers.

If you haven’t seen the murals around town/live under a rock, Art Whino shot an awesome recap video of last year’s work.
