NYC DOT Art commissions artists to design and paint temporary murals onto fully pedestrianized asphalt spaces, concrete jersey barriers, and other eligible NYC DOT infrastructure. Professional artists may apply to NYC DOT Art’s biennial open call soliciting qualifications to be selected for inclusion in an artist registry, and the opportunity to be short-listed to create a proposal for specific mural opportunities. Selected artists receive a project fee to execute the mural.

NYC DOT Art may provide selected artists with up to $20,000 towards direct project costs dependent on project scope, including but not limited to all labor, paint, materials, and equipment. All selected artists are entitled to an artist fee not to exceed 20% of the total budget but may also be entitled to a labor fee. NYC DOT Art will provide the necessary permits to install on City-owned property.
