The deadline to submit an application for Mural Application Phase 3, the final phase, is due January 15, 2023. Local artists that are interested in submitting artwork to be considered for Minneola’s Murals on The Trail Project should visit the Minneola Artworx website.

The theme is Community. There are approximately 8 panels left. The panels measure approximately 15’x9’. Artists are encouraged to visit the site to get a feel for the size of the project, the “canvas” being used, and the area being painted.

The Murals on The Trail will be placed at the overpass to US Highway 27 on the South Lake Trail (approximately ½ mile west of Minneola Trailhead Park on the South Lake Bike Trail.) Minneola Artworx will supply primer, paint and sealer. Artists will be responsible for providing brushes, tools, etc.

Read the guidelines carefully. Some previous submissions that looked amazing were simply disqualified because they did not meet the criteria for the project or FDOT’s qualifications. Remember to explain how the art piece relates to the main theme of the project – Community. 

Once an artist’s work is selected and completed, the artist will be compensated $500. Visit the Minneola Artworx website;
