San Marcos Calls For Artists As Part Of Mural Series

- To be colorful and inspiring for visitors.
- To be reflective of its surroundings and of the community values.
The artist stipend for this project is $3,700. Materials for the project will be provided by the City of San Marcos. The application deadline is Monday, July 24, 2017, 5 p.m.
