The Irving Community Mural is a project to involve the whole community in ideas, design and painting. The mural will adorn the large east-facing exterior of the Grange. We want to add character and beauty to our neighborhood with public art and we need your help!
Participate!
Your ideas and elbow grease are requested. Come to a Mural Brainstorm session (July 18, 6:30pm) where we will float our best ideas for the mural, help us organize mural fundraisers or help us get paint on the wall at the Mural Kick-Off Painting Party (it’s easier than you think). To sign up for updates on volunteer opportunities and upcoming events, or to drop mural ideas through email, contact: muralswork@gmail.com

Help us make this dream come true. We have a fundraising goal of $15,000 that includes materials and the professional mural team Mural Mice Universal who will guide the project, paint, and put the final touches on the mural. With the help of volunteers we have been able to keep the project budget low. Your contribution is invaluable, let’s make this happen!

Meet the Artists
They may be small in the grand scheme of things, but when they work together big things happen. Mural Mice Universal is a team of two artists who have been painting together for 18 years.
