Arts in Public Places program overview: Art knows no language yet it speaks: Beauty. Therapy. Transformation! Just a few reasons the City of North Miami deems art essential to the health and vigor of its diverse communities. A long-standing proponent of the arts—whether as the film or recording capital of South Florida—or as home to the internationally-renowned Museum of Contemporary Art (MoCA), the City launched its Arts in Public Places program (APP) in 2010, coordinating closely with the County’s own ‘Art in Public Places’ initiative.

NoMi MURALscape - The North Miami CRA is seeking qualified artists to create a mosaic of murals throughout the North Miami CRA that infuses culture, and tapestry creating a narrative that can invoke thoughts and transformation. Each mural will reflect the cities theme of “Resilience and Sustainability”.

Each wall will vary in size ranging from 300 sq. ft. to 4000 sq. ft.

To participate with this opportunity, artists are invited to submit a short bio and samples of their existing work to be considered. This deadline is February 28, 2023.

If selected by the Art Committee, an official invite will be extended for an official proposal that meets the listed requirements.

NMCRA seeks to commission original art for its NoMi MURALscape project. NMCRA is accepting proposals, each of which may include up to five (5) digital images and two (2) distinct design concepts to include artwork as depicted in ATTACHMENT A.

This deadline is March 31, 2023. Each selected artist will be paid $200 for their time to submit the proposal.
