Wall Artist Roster

The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC), Department of Parks and Recreation, Prince George’s County’s Artist Roster serves as a bridge connecting talented artists residing in the Greater Washington, Maryland and Virginia Metropolitan area to exciting commissions for wall art projects.

The M-NCPPC is actively seeking muralists, as well as artists proficient in mosaic tile, low-relief, and other installation media suitable for both temporary and permanent installations on exterior walls. We especially encourage artists that reside or have a studio in the Prince George’s County area to apply.

Selected artists will join our Wall Artist Roster, gaining eligibility for consideration in a variety of future opportunities facilitated by the M-NCPPC. While listing on the Roster does not guarantee a commission, those artists listed will remain on the Roster for a period of three years and may receive individual invitations for opportunities that arise through the artist selection processes as they occur.

The Wall Artist Roster is currently open for applications, and the M-NCPPC will be accepting submissions on a rolling basis, until November 29th. We retain the right to utilize this Roster alongside other selection approaches for future project commissions.
