City of Goodyear Seeks Artists for Juneteenth Mural Experience in 2027
The City of Goodyear, Arizona, has issued a call for artists to participate in a two-part live mural experience celebrating Black history, culture, music, and community. This initiative is part of the city's Jazz in the Park event in February 2027 and its Juneteenth Family Day celebration on June 19, 2027. Selected artists will design and paint temporary murals inspired by the theme 'Retro – Good Times, Music & Dance,' focusing on the joy, energy, and cultural influence of music and dance through a retro lens. Artists will work on their murals during the week leading up to Jazz in the Park, with a live painting component during the event on February 20, 2027. The completed murals will then be preserved and displayed again at Goodyear High School for the Juneteenth Family Day celebration.
