Welcome to Olde Town Shindig Mural Competition and Auction page - the place to bid, vote and have fun! After it's inaugural year in 2023, we heard an outpouring of how much people loved the fact that the Olde Town Shindig featured live painting by so may talented artists. So of course, we had to do it again. Not only does this competition encourage the addition of art to public spaces, but the Grand Prize Winner will work with a local business/property owner to install a permanent mural in Olde Town Arvada!
This means that when you support this competion, either through bidding on completed murals or using your dollars to vote for your favorite, you are supporting the addition of public art in Olde Town Arvada!
We thank you - the Olde Town Arvada Business Improvement District
