COMPLETED MURALS & More PUBLIC ART
Paint the County! aims to provide artists access to new revenue streams, make space for underrepresented voices to be more visible in our community, draw people to new, important, or under-activated spaces, and spread our creative identity to all parts of Portage County.
*Projects marked with an asterisk are part of a partnership with the Women’s Suffrage Centennial Commission, the National Endowment for the Arts, Arts Midwest, and the Wisconsin Arts Board that celebrates the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment through murals that incorporate inspirational quotations authored by women from marginalized backgrounds, adding vibrant and meaningful public art that honors these unique locations.
FUND A MURAL
Paint the County projects are a great way to honor a loved one, commemorate a milestone, or show support for the arts. If you, your family, your friend group, or your business is interested in learning more about a project, contact CREATE Portage County. We are also asking key partners to rally their friends and family, neighborhoods and networks to see if you can raise money to fund a mural or placemaking project. By becoming a fundraiser, you can leverage your network to cover the cost of a project that will spread Portage County's creative identity to more places!
