Call for Mural Artists!

Call for Mural Artists – AX, the Arts and Culture Centre of Sussex

Sussex is seeking to commission seven new site-specific murals that will be created in the summer of 2025 and will remain on public display for 5-10 years. These dynamic new pieces of art will connect and engage with the community, transforming the sites into vibrant, inviting and meaningful public places. 

Eligible artists are invited to submit expressions of interest and qualifications to this call. Details are provided below.

The commissioned artists will be selected through an open, two-stage process. The site-specific project budgets include all costs directly associated with the artwork: including taxes, artist fees, production, materials, equipment rental, installation, and other professional services, accommodations, insurance, WorkSafe fee, travel and other incidental and production expenses.

Artists will be shortlisted and each paid $400 CAD (inclusive of all taxes) to create detailed proposals.
