🎨 Calling All Local Artists: Mural Art Project Opportunity! 🎨
Hello, Los Alamos Community! We at BEZ Rentals are thrilled to announce an exciting community outreach project—we’re looking to commission a local artist for two unique mural art installations at our newest Airbnb location in Los Alamos!
✨About the Project: We have two distinct canvases for this project:
1️⃣ Cement Half Wall: A 3.5ft high, 68.5ft long cement slab half wall located at the front of the house. Our vision is to transform this wall into a vibrant, wild garden of native New Mexican flowers and plants, such as yucca, sage, desert marigold, Indian paintbrush, verbena, New Mexico thistle, and more. We’re seeking an artist who knows how to work with cement and apply a preservative finish to ensure the mural’s longevity.
2️⃣ Backyard Shed: A 10x12x10 shed in the backyard that we’ll sand, prime, and paint with a base color on the two back sides. The front and right sides of the shed will serve as your canvas. We envision bright, colorful native plants and flowers that complement the cement half wall in the front and the surrounding nature and canyon views.
However, we are open to your creative ideas and interpretations!
*Current pictures of both are attached below.
Commission Details:
✅ Budget: $1,500 plus the cost of supplies.
✅ Timeline: Ideally, we’d love to see the project completed by October 1st, but we’re flexible and can extend the deadline to October 20th if needed.
✅ Proposal Submission: If you’re interested in bringing these murals to life, please email your proposal to [email protected].
In the email include:
1️⃣ Your vision or ideas for the murals
2️⃣ Estimated timeline
3️⃣ Estimated supplies needed
4️⃣ Your background as an artist and what inspires you as an artist
5️⃣ Why you think you'd be a great fit for this art project and opportunity
6️⃣ Any other information you want to share
7️⃣ We’d love to hear/see your ideas and a sample of your portfolio if available (no worries if you don’t have one!).
✅ Deadline: We’re accepting proposals through Friday, September 13th.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an artist to showcase their work in a local space, contributing to the beauty of our neighborhood and enhancing the guest experience at our Airbnb.
We’d also love to feature the selected artist and their work in the local newspaper, highlighting your talent and this special project🧑🎨🏆📰
We’re excited to collaborate with a local artist and can’t wait to see your creative vision come to life!
All ages and experience levels are welcome to apply—if this sounds like a project you’d love to be part of, we’d love to hear from you.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to make our community even more beautiful!🌵🌻
