Mural Program
The Beaverton Arts Commission has recently launched a new Mural Program to provide opportunities for artists to paint murals in Beaverton.
The public art mural program is a city–wide program administered by the Beaverton Arts Commission (BAC) as part of its Public Art Program. The Beaverton City Council voted in April 2008 to exempt all public art from the City’s sign code and create a public art program for display of art on public rights of way and on private building facades and other private property under the terms of easements to be granted to the City for that purpose. New murals are reviewed by the Public Art Selection Committee, a standing committee that is responsible for overseeing the City’s Public Art Mural Program. Committee members include a representative from the City and the Arts Commission, as well as artists, arts patrons, a City resident and an experienced muralist. The program has a matching grant fund opportunity available.
