DCist reports on MuralsDC, a partnership between the city’s public works department and the Commission on Arts and Humanities, which is looking for businesses to apply for murals to cover graffiti on their buildings. So if you have a business with a graffiti problem, sign up!
There’s no cost to the business, and murals are pretty cool anyway — there’s a nice one on the side of BloomBars, for example.
Murals also discourage graffiti taggers, and you can’t beat the price. Here’s the application — deadline is April 15. MuralsDC has been featured in the Post and BBC News.
