Mural-Artist_Image_2022

The Lake Wales Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) is actively seeking a talented, experienced and original artist to paint one of our underpasses. 

The CRA will provide a payment of $10,000 to the artist chosen; nothing above $10,000 will be contributed.  This payment will cover painting both the left and right side of the underpass. 

We ask that you submit a visual portfolio of your work along with a quick sketch of your mural idea.  The subject matter must be related to Lake Wales.

Please submit your visual portfolio and resume to crainfo@lakewalesfl.gov, no later than 5 P.M. on February 25, 2022 

An artist will be chosen through a selected art committee that will complete evaluations.  With the aim of supporting local artists, preferred ranking will be given to any artist from Lake Wales.  

For more information email Cheryl Baksh, CRA Specialist at cbaksh@lakewalesfl.gov or call 863.678.4182 EXT 263.
