Project Summary:
The City of Molalla, in collaboration with the Arts Action Alliance Foundation, is seeking qualifications from Artists or Artist teams for a mural to be sited in Sally and Marlin Fox Memorial Park in downtown Molalla. The 6' x 20' foot mural will be double-sided (viewable from both sides) and will be positioned between two vertical logs measuring approximately 20" in diameter.
