Community Mural Project - Pulaski Mural Artist
Regional muralists needed to create a large-scale public mural in downtown Pulaski, Virginia celebrating Southwest Virginia's culture and creativity.
The Town of Pulaski, Virginia has been selected to receive a vibrant new mural through 'Round the Mountain Artisan Network's Community Mural Project. This initiative is designed to celebrate Southwest Virginia's culture, creativity, and sense of place while promoting downtown development and community revitalization.
The Community Mural Project will install a large-scale public mural in downtown Pulaski on Main Street, reinforcing 'Round the Mountain's mission to encourage downtown development, community revitalization, and grow creative economy tourism throughout the region. This project aligns with Pulaski's recent downtown revitalization efforts, including new streetscapes and six businesses that have opened or expanded in 2025.
The mural project is a collaboration between 'Round the Mountain Artisan Network, the Town of Pulaski, and the Fine Arts Center for the New River Valley, an organization that has supported the arts and artists in the region for almost half a century.
A Request for Proposals (RFP) has been released for artists interested in creating the mural. Regional muralists and qualified public artists are encouraged to apply. A muralist will be selected in early 2026, with project completion and a public unveiling anticipated in summer 2026. This represents an exciting opportunity for artists to create a visual landmark that will serve as a testament to Pulaski's commitment to building a vibrant, welcoming, and connected community.
