Submit a theme for Artists of the Wall!

Planning is beginning for the 33rd annual Artists of the Wall Festival, and we’d love your input! Each year, our theme inspires hundreds of community artists who transform the Loyola Park seawall into a colorful celebration of creativity and connection.

Last year’s theme was “All Together Now” — what should 2026’s theme be?

Please share your theme ideas with the Loyola Park Advisory Council by October 31. Whether it’s playful, reflective, or rooted in community spirit, we can’t wait to hear your suggestions.

The event is finished.
