The Marine View Mural Project team invited Juneau artists to take part in a collaborative public art initiative and educational opportunity. This is an ongoing 3 year public art project, with one group displayed every year, May-April.  

Artist Murals displayed were chosen through an application process. After selection, participants received hands-on guidance in the form of a month-long workshop from experienced muralists and public artists, gaining insight into scaling artwork for large surfaces, navigating the legal aspects of public art, and learning the full mural creation process. 

This project is open to high school students, university students, and adult artists in any stage of their career. Selections are be based on the quality of the proposed mural idea, and having a diverse selection of backgrounds and styles of art.
