Put your mark on Hawthorne!

We’re transforming SE 37th & Hawthorne into a vibrant pedestrian plaza and we’re looking for a bold, inspiring street painting design to bring it to life.

This is your chance to shape the look and feel of a high visibility public space that will serve as a gathering spot for the community all year long.

Whether you’re a seasoned artist, designer, or a creative thinker with a vision, we want to see your ideas!
The winning design will be featured in the plaza and awarded a $250 honorarium.

Deadline: Sunday, May 11 at 6PM
Designs must use the provided template and include a name for your piece.
