Murals bring color, identity, and connection to our neighborhoods—transforming public spaces into shared stories.
Currently, no mural opportunities are open for artist submissions. For organizations or individuals considering a new project, we’re happy to answer questions and discuss what’s possible.
Call for Artists OPEN
The Oak Park Area Arts Council, in partnership with the Village of Oak Park and the North Avenue District, is seeking submissions from artists for a mural to be created in the North Avenue Business District. This mural will be part of the North Art Bridge Project.
Deadline: August 24, 2026

Artists deserve to feel supported and celebrated. The Oak Park Area Arts Council champions the people and organizations that keep creativity alive in our tri-village area.
