Mural Project

The Children’s Museum of Wilmington (CMoW) is excited to announce the selection process for a new mural in the Port Wing of the Museum. The mural is made possible by a grant from the North Carolina Arts Council and Arts North Carolina, and awarded through the Arts Council of Wilmington and New Hanover County with matching funds from the Museum. This public art initiative aims to enhance the Museum experience for children aged 0-10 and their caregivers while celebrating the creative talent of North Carolina-based artists.

​

Artists interested in this opportunity are invited to submit proposals (including concept sketch, artist statement, and portfolio samples) in response to a Request for Proposals (RFP) outlining theme details, mural dimensions, project requirements, start date, and budget. The selection committee will evaluate submissions based on alignment with the RFP, artistic merit, and resonance with the Museum’s audience. 

​

Interested artists should review the Request for Proposals and submit their proposals by the April 2, 2025 4:00 PM deadline.
