Murals

Mural Program

The SBIA facilitates a mural program to beautify and help create a positive image for our area and support our local artists. Murals have proven to be an excellent deterrent against graffiti.

If you are a Strathcona business and would like to be considered for a mural, you should apply using the Strathcona BIA Mural Program application.  If your application to the SBIA is approved, we will fund part or all of the artist's fees.

Please submit an application to the SBIA Mural Program between January 1 and May 31, 2012. The application period for 2011 has now passed.

Mural locations are selected based on a number of factors, including visibility and potential to deter graffiti.
