Salem is reaching out to Boston-area artists who might be interested in creating a large-scale mural at the city’s Mayor Jean Levesque Community Life Center.
The city is offering a $30,000 public art grant to a selected artist to create the work, which will adorn the walls of the Great Room, a large community-gathering space on the first floor of the center. The Bridge Street building houses the city’s Council on Aging; Veterans Services; and Parks, Recreation, and Community Services departments.
The artist can choose the form and content of the mural, but the work must be developed in partnership with constituents of the Community Life Center through workshops and feedback sessions.
The Salem Public Arts Commission, in conjunction with the Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Department, Mayor Kim Driscoll, and other community members, will act as jury for the artist selection. Interested artists must submit their qualifications to the city by Sept. 15.
John Laidler can be reached at laidler@globe.com.
