Why this petition matters

Started by ArtBox DC

Shaw Main Streets is applying for funding from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities’ Public Art Building Communities grant program for the 9th Street Mural Project. The project would bring new murals to blank walls and rolldown doors along 9th Street, NW and in Blagden Alley’s DC Alley Museum.

This series of murals will celebrate women in the arts, featuring an all-female lineup of established muralists who will invite emerging artists to work alongside them on their respective installations.

Shaw Main Streets has brought many public art installations to the neighborhood over the last several years that have generated thousands of social media posts. Thank you for showing these artists’ work some love!

Now we need your signature on this petition to demonstrate community support for this fiscal year 2021 grant application to be submitted July 17, 2020.

Please support the 9th Street Mural Project today!
