About KnoxWalls Murals & Music Festival:

Get ready for a day bursting with color, creativity, and community as Dogwood Arts transforms Emory Place into an open-air art and music experience. 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.

Throughout the day, attendees will vote to select the 1st & 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.
