JUDGING

Judging will occur at 1PM on Sunday, June 15.  We award prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place adults and 1st and 2nd junior and teen. Judging will occur from 1-2PM on Sunday and will be announced on the stage as soon as it is completed.

Judges will consider:

  • Best interpretation of mural theme
  • Overall use of space + shape of painting surface
  • Artistic creativity

SOCIAL MEDIA

You can find us on social media at @loyolaparkac on instagram and Loyola Park Advisory Council on Facebook.  Please tag us in your pics from the day and hashtag the event #AOTW2024.  We will reshare your work!  Attached are a couple of graphics to announce to the world that you’re a 2024 artist!!!

WALK UP SPACES

All of the pre-sold spots are sold out for Artists of the Wall, but it looks like we will have walk up spaces.  We will begin giving out walk up spaces at 10AM at the registration tent to those that are present.  Walk up spaces are $45 for paint and a space via cash or square.  All walk up spaces must be prepared to paint on the same day the spot is received and should substantially complete the spot on the day the space is received.  Painting must be completed on Sunday.

  • I understand that all work created in conjunction with the Artists of the Wall Festival may be photographed and documented for use by the Loyola Park Advisory Council and the Chicago Park District and that these photographs may be used for future promotional purposes by LPAC and CPD.
  • Artists must register in person and start painting by Noon on Saturday, June 20 or your space will be forfeited. Your mural should be in progress and painting started by Noon. There will be no refunds given on forfeited spaces. You must contact loyolaparkac@gmail.com with any special requests.
  • Only one space is allowed per family/group to allow more people to participate in the fest. Please refrain from special requests to be next to a specific person. If two people agree to trade spaces in person at the festival, it is up to you to notify Registration of the change. Prizes will be awarded to the name we have recorded to the space.
  • Spaces vary in shape, size, and location and are assigned randomly. Unless another participant agrees to trade spaces, the volunteers running the event will not exchange spaces.
