The Duluth Public Arts Commission (DPAC) & the City of Duluth are launching a contactless community grid mural this spring. DPAC has commissioned Georgia artist, Catlanta to design the mural (pictured below), which will be 12’ x 4’ when fully assembled. The design of the mural captures the spirit of Duluth and conveys a message of hope, recovery, and community. The mural will be divided into 192 grid increments (6” x 6” each). The grid panels will be painted by community members, who will be able to do a contactless pick-up starting April 19th and drop-off of painting supplies and/or finished panels. The 192 painted canvas panels will be collected, assembled, and put on display in the City of Duluth during Duluth Art Month starting on May 14th during Art Month. Anyone is welcome to participate! Because we only have a limited number of panels (192), we are inviting community members to pre-register for the bag pick-up. Only one panel/bag per person please. If you do not pre-register, the kits will be available on a first come first, served basis starting on April 23rd. Each bag will contain paint, a 6” x 6” canvas panel, a brush, and a reference square. This reference square is your assigned portion of the grid.
