Overview

The Arts & Business Council of Greater Nashville, Urban Green Lab & Nashville Farmers Market are thrilled to announce a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for an artist to paint a dynamic mural for Urban Green Lab’s Waste Less Mural Project, a mural series across Nashville dedicated to raising visibility about the issue of food waste.

About the Nashville Farmer's Market

The Nashville Farmers' Market accommodates locals and tourists alike representing the best of Nashville's food system and boasting a rich history of equity among Nashvillians. Additionally, it doubles as a great place for Nashville to show off its hospitality! Through its vendors and patrons, this unique venue, adjacent to historic North Nashville and Germantown neighborhoods, balances international and local flavors alike. Learn more about the market's history.

About the Mural

The fourth mural in the Waste Less Mural Project will be installed on the exterior wall of the walk-in cooler in Farm Shed 1 at the Nashville Farmers Market. It will declare “Food is our Past, Present, and Future. Waste Less.” to inspire shoppers, visitors, and neighbors to reduce food waste. The theme honors the market's long and storied history while celebrating its current identity as a diverse community food hub, reflecting the backgrounds of its vendors and patrons. The future is twofold. A nod to the possibilities of what the market will become and a reminder of the opportunities it offers as a public food system hub where equity flourishes.
