About the event

Created in 1932 through an endowed bequest in honor of illustrator and muralist Edwin Austin Abbey ANA, NA, the Abbey Mural Prize awards grants to support the creation and restoration of public murals in the United States. Since 1940, the National Academy has awarded funds to dozens of individuals or organizations who are building on a tradition of public murals as instruments of social activism, neighborhood revitalization, and community engagement.  Through awarding $125,000 annually, the Abbey Mural Prize aims to broaden support and recognition of the vital role that murals play in making public space more open and accessible. Grants are awarded to create or restore public murals, especially those that promote accessibility, serve local audiences, and inspire community dialogue. While murals are conventionally defined as paintings or mosaics on a wall, the prize welcomes proposals that broaden the definition of what murals can be.  About the Prize: Grants typically range from $10,000 to $40,000 USD in minimally restricted support for the production and installation of mural(s) on and within public buildings and on buildings owned by charitable institutions. The jury reserves the right to award grantees full or partial funding.
