Call to Artist
We could not be more thrilled to be releasing these open calls and infusing more than a half a million dollars into the Detroit arts ecosystem this summer. We are confident that these community driven projects will not only have a massive positive impact on Detroit’s built environment but will also serve to strengthen the shared community fabric that weaves us all together. Please pay close attention to the COMMUNITY VISION STATEMENT in the artist packet. This section is developed by the community and is intended to inspire your proposals for the project(s) you choose to apply for, We hope you apply to them all, and we look forward to reviewing your submissions and thank you for participating!
"We Build Giants" Mural Project
City Walls Detroit is partnering with BuildSubmarines.com to celebrate Michigan’s manufacturing workforce through the eyes and talent of its incredible artists. Specifically, we are seeking an artist to design a mural that brings to life Michigan’s skilled trade workers of today and tomorrow working on and being trained to work on Michigan’s new major maritime manufacturing initiative: the maintenance and construction of U.S. Navy Submarines.
