Storefront Window Painting Holidays 2021-2022

CALL FOR ARTISTS: “Myrtle Wonderland” 

The storefront art activation is designed to boost holiday spirit, entertain residents and attract new customers to experience Myrtle Avenue’s variety of retail, restaurant and event offerings. This is a perfect opportunity to spend some “socially-distanced” outdoor time with family and friends, continuing through January. 

We are looking for three artists to design and paint two storefronts (each) on Myrtle Avenue. The windows should be holiday-themed and relate to the business the storefront belongs to. There is an artist honorarium of $300 per window. Materials are not included. 

To Apply:

Send a photo of past work or related content, and a brief summary of your proposed design for the storefront windows (just a couple of sentences is sufficient) to claudia@myrtleavenue.org by Nov 8.

Timeline:

• November 1-8: Artist applications open
• November 10: Artists selected and notified
• November 15-19: Artist will mock up designs, share with business owner for approval, and schedule day to paint
• November 29 – December 3: Window painting

Note: All windows would be installed by Dec 3, 2021
