Mural Opportunity in Umatilla
6x26 Mural Project
Project Goals – 6x26:
The City of Umatilla has a goal to complete six (6) murals in Umatilla. These plans align with city council goals listed below:
Goal 3 – Enhance & Cultivate Relationships, Partnerships, & Community Perceptions
Goal 4 – Increase Public Involvement, Increase Transparency, & Enhance Cultural Diversity
First presented to the Council in April of 2019, the 6x26 Mural Project will beautify the Umatilla community through commissioned artists and public involvement to create murals on downtown buildings. The project will conclude in 2026.
Vision for Nugent Park Mural:
Nugent Park, in Umatilla, Oregon, is the first location for the 6x26 Mural Project. The theme for the mural is “Celebrate Umatilla Parks and Recreation”. The content of the mural is up to the artist’s discretion. Some things to consider include a collage of sports like baseball and soccer. Since the mural is located at Nugent Park, home to the City’s little league field, the sporting component is important. Additionally, the park is just feet from the Umatilla River and a walking path. The mural could include recreation activities such as kayaking, fishing, hiking, and boat launching.
This mural should focus on the theme “Celebrate Umatilla Parks and Recreation”.
