Build connection and community through art.

Show Me Neighborhood Art Week June 1 - June 14, 2024

Show Me Neighborhood Art Week is a new community public art event happening across the state of Missouri from June 1 to June 15.

This event is coordinated by the University of Missouri Extention and all Missourians are invited to participate in Show Me Neighborhood Art Week.  Create outdoor art using materials available at home, such as yard sculptures, chalk art projects, painted stones, or murals, in front of their residence or shared spaces in their neighborhood. 

Residents interested in participating must register their location and submit an image of the completed art. The registration deadline for Show Me Neighborhood Art Week is May 24.

Registered participants are eligible for statewide recognition awards.
