Ten talented muralists will go head-to-head in a live painting competition, creating murals in real time while festival-goers watch the art unfold, enjoy performances by local & regional musicians, and explore the vibrant personalities of the businesses in and around Emory Place.

Once the murals are complete, the public will vote online to select the 1st and 2nd place winners, who will each receive permanent mural commissions at sites around Knoxville. The temporary 8’x8’ murals will then be auctioned online, with proceeds shared between the artists and Dogwood Arts’ Mural Program, fueling even more public art projects across the city.
