It’s no secret that here in Eau Claire we love our murals. So Visit Eau Claire is bringing back the ColorBlock Program that brought so many amazing and unique murals to downtown walls in 2021. 

Any artists interested in applying to be a part of this program have until May 1 to do so. Up to three different mural designs may be submitted and will be selected by the ColorBlock Committee of Sculpture Tour Eau Claire.

All selected artists will have their materials provided to them and will receive a stipend of $150 for their work. The murals will remain on display between August 2022 and July 2023. ColorBlock is a part of Sculpture Tour Eau Claire, a local nonprofit focused on giving the community free public art.

These murals are a huge part of what makes Eau Claire special and allow for local artists to leave their mark on the town.
