Funded by the City’s General Fund, the mural program is part of the City’s Creative Edge Plan to bring art and culture to Sacramento neighborhoods and communities. Locations of the murals were decided with the input of the community and Council District’s office.

The Community Murals program included community collaboration and input at all phases of the project. Each project included community engagement events and a planned community paint day where community members participated in painting a portion of the mural.

8 Murals Artists Community Collaborations

“Part of the goal of Community Murals Sacramento was to connect artists with community members as well as create new connections with other working artists we might have not known previously. I was able to build new relationships with other local artists and community members which absolutely brought this mural to life.”
