The Town of Vernon, Connecticut, is seeking a professional artist or artist teams to submit qualifications for the design and installation of a large-scale narrative mural at 1 Prospect Street, Vernon, CT.

Proposals should convey a clear sense of place and use the theme “Threads of Community” as a baseline.

Considered for this project, eligible artists or artist teams must submit the following materials, and materials must be received by the Town of Vernon via email to the attention of Annie Geitner, Accelerator Mural Project Leader, ageitner@vernon-ct.gov as a single merged PDF file.
