For sculpted prints, save your print bodies to display with the finished artwork. The theme is open, but must be suitable for a family audience.

The exhibit will take place in the new City of Avondale Art Gallery near the entrance of the Avondale Civic Center Library located at 11350 W Civic Center Dr, Avondale, AZ.
“Greetings From El Mirage” Mural Project
The selected mural design will be inspired by the nostalgic “Greetings From…” postcard style, incorporating the iconic block letters and imagery that represents the culture, heritage, and defining characteristics of El Mirage.
To ensure durability and quality of the installation, the selected artist will paint the final artwork on a 36” x 48” canvas. The image will then be digitized and enlarged into a vinyl wall wrap for installation on the building facade.
The City of El Mirage will retain ownership of both the original canvas and the mural image.
