Applications are now open to celebrate the City of Toronto motto “Diversity Our Strength” and foster a greater sense of belonging among all.
StART welcomes and actively seeks out partners for initiatives that support program objectives and works closely with partnership staff in other City divisions and agencies and supports City partnership activities.
StART has received requests from artists interested in doing more projects in support of Black Lives and justice for Indigenous Peoples. In response, this “Just Us” Art Call is for concepts for murals that highlight social injustice, equity, race relations and community engagement.
For this Request for Concept Descriptions, the City of Toronto is seeking submissions from street, mural and graffiti artists or artist collectives who have access to a wall exposed to city streets with written authorization from the property owner granting the artist permission to paint their mural concept on the wall.
Funding Information
- An Advisory Panel will select up to 10 projects from the roster to receive up to $3,000 toward the creation of their mural.
Eligibility Criteria
- Artist applicants must reside in the City of Toronto.
- Artist applicants must be at least 18 years old.
