Artists are essential to our work, and we are committed to supporting them by creating employment opportunities, offering artist training, and providing resources for them to expand their practices.

We offer fellowships, internships, apprenticeships, and emerging artist opportunities. The website muralartsinstitute.com highlights our free training and programs, lists open requests for qualifications and proposals, and offers a library of research and links to local and national resources.
