More than paint on a wall- grassroots public art movement turning graffiti-covered spaces into messages of hope, unity, and creativity.
Color My City is a public art initiative that gives local artists a platform to be seen, heard, and felt—while uniting communities and beautifying neighborhoods through message-driven murals.
How it Works
Cities open their walls. Artists bring the vision. The community decides.
Color My City invites neighborhoods to submit spaces ready for transformation—and local artists to submit powerful mural designs that inspire hope, connection, and creativity.
Finalists are chosen by public vote, turning blank walls into bold messages that move entire communities.
Winning artists are celebrated, commissioned, and brought to life on the walls of the city.
Selected by public vote and community impact, these artists are paid for their work, honored at our events, and given a city-sized canvas to share their message with the world.
Walls are sponsored. Artists are empowered. The city comes alive.
Murals begin to bloom across neighborhoods—each one backed by local support and filled with meaning. Every mural features a QR code that unlocks exclusive content: artist stories, meditations, coloring pages, and local fun facts—inviting the community to pause, connect, and become part of the movement.

Our story
Why bother? Because the walls of a city are always speaking. And right now, too many of ours are echoing disconnection, neglect, and frustration.
Color My City is a nonprofit movement transforming forgotten spaces into meaningful murals created by local artists. It’s about turning overlooked walls into opportunities—for creativity and connection.
Where others see damage, we see possibility.
We partner with schools, artists, and city leaders to create more than murals.
We build platforms for voices that need to be heard and provide access to mentorship, materials, and opportunities for young artists.
Every mural carries a message.
Every artist shares their truth.
And everyone who stops to look is invited into something bigger than themselves.
Let’s color our cities—together.
