Mural Arts Philadelphia is seeking an artist to create a temporary mural, which will be displayed for one year at the Kensington Painter’s Wall inside of Prevention Point’s Love Lot. The Love Lot is a multi-use outdoor space operated by Prevention Point, where many kinds of harm reduction services are administered including food, clothing, medical aid, syringe services, art workshops, community events, and drug treatment. In 2023, Mural Arts worked with artist Jacob C. Hammes to design and fabricate art and infrastructure for the Love Lot as a useful, beautiful, and welcoming place for healing.  As part of the project, Hammes incorporated a section of the space called The Kensington Painter’s Wall, an annually-rotating mural wall dedicated to promoting the creativity of artists connected to this community.  The artist will be provided a fee of $1,000, and all other costs, such as paint and plywood, will be provided by Mural Arts.  The accepted artist must complete an approved design by February 15th, 2025. Production must occur off site (due to winter usage of the Love Lot) and the work must be completed by early spring 2025 so that installation can take place in May 2025. There will be a small dedication during June 2025 to celebrate the work, which will be on display for approximately a year.
