CRUSH WALLS has grown to become Colorado’s largest urban art event. Showcasing local and international talent, it has been bringing art out of the galleries and into the streets from its very inception, reaching a pinnacle of 80+ public art murals last year.

Rooted in the ethos of the RiNo Art District —‘where art is made’—the Denver festival has been both a platform for creative expression and a catalyst for awesome collective gatherings. Each succeeding edition has increased the festival’s pulling power, attracting actors from the global artistic community and driving locals and visitors alike around the expanding urban art movement.

CRUSH WALLS is an event that aims to support and engage community through access, engagement and education through arts and culture. CRUSH raises of the cultural significance and importance of art for all ages and all demographics that may not have the opportunity to experience it otherwise.

We welcome submissions from artists of all different mediums to participate in CRUSH WALLS 2018. You may apply as an individual artist, or as a group of artists. You must be a Colorado resident, or partnered with a Colorado resident artist, to apply. The application period closes at 5 PM on Friday, June 15, 2018.
