Asphalt Art Community Painting Day

Join us and The City Repair Project for a day of community creativity as we bring Yinka Ilori’s monumental asphalt artwork, Mountains Full of Blessings, to life! We’re creating a new plaza in the South Park Blocks and need your help to make it happen. Because Everybody is an Art Person, this family-friendly “painting party” is designed for all to enjoy—no matter your experience with a paint brush.  Registered painters must be 5 years or older. We’ll supply the paint, tools, water, and snacks. Restrooms are available on-site. Volunteers can sign up for a one-hour time slot to contribute to this lasting neighborhood landmark. Pre-registration is full. You are still welcome to join us as a walk-up painter on July 11!  Sign up Mountains Full of Blessings is a partnership with the Portland Bureau of Transportation, the Portland Office of Arts and Culture, and the City Repair Project, and is made possible by funding from Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Asphalt Art Initiative and the Portland Office of Arts and Culture.
