Printmaking by the People is a citywide dialogue and public art project about how the Declaration of Independence has set the stage for life in our city and our nation today.

The project is revisiting and reimagining printing’s historic role in public communication and civic dialogue, particularly its roots in Philadelphia as a means of disseminating debates about the movement for independence.

The project will hone in on the Declaration’s promise of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” to the emerging nation. Today, we will ask people to explore where we have succeeded at that, what work remains to be done, and what their own passions and commitments are for the future — and express their ideas through posters that they design and print themselves.

We are inviting any community organization that would like to host a workshop to apply for consideration. Please respond by checking full description and application form.  Please note that our funding allows for  a limited number of workshops available, and we will want to make sure we reach all areas of the city, so we may not be able to schedule workshops for all applicants.

Mural Arts Philadelphia is seeking an artist or team of artists to help conceive, design and implement a placemaking project for the new shopping center (Sharswood Plaza) at Ridge Avenue, Jefferson Street and 21st Street, in the Sharswood neighborhood of North Central Philadelphia.

The placemaking project will consist of painting a ground mural on two segments of a pedestrian walkway that connects a community plaza to the entrance of a supermarket, and painting murals on the vertical concrete columns of a parking garage that faces the plaza and the street. Photographs of the site are provided in an attachment to this RFQ. Artists / artist teams must have the skills to lead community engagement, and to design and install their projects. Mural Arts will provide technical assistance and facilitate approvals. For artists applying on their own, Mural Arts can also put together a team of assistants.

Three artists / teams will be paid a fee of $1,000 for preparing and proposing a concept for the project. The artist fee for the community engagement process, finalizing the design and installing the murals, including both lead artist and assistants, will be $70,000. This will include priming the walls and painting and sealing the murals. Mural Arts will pay for materials, supplies and equipment, and manage permissions for the work. The project will begin upon the selection of the artist, with installation expected to be complete by the end of July, 2025.

Printmaking by the People – a reflection on the nation’s semi-quincentennial – is a public art project that will engage people across Philadelphia in a dialogue about how the promise of the Declaration of Independence has set the stage for life in our city and our nation today. It will result in a signature Center City mural and an exhibition at the Free Library of Philadelphia in 2026.

Printmaking by the People will reimagine the Declaration of Independence, asking people across Philadelphia simple yet catalytic questions that arise at this moment: 

• What values do we share? 
• What work remains to be done to realize the promises of the Declaration? 
• How might the Declaration’s vision be reimagined for the future? 

The project will also reimagine printmaking’s historic role in public communication and civic dialogue, particularly its roots in Philadelphia as a means of disseminating debates and news about the movement for independence. It will embrace the tradition of poster-making as a means of political expression and advocacy. 

Throughout the coming year, Mural Arts will convene free workshops across the city, led by facilitators and artists, that feature small-group dialogues and hands-on printing activities that engage people in this dialogue and provide a space for them to create prints with their own messages.
