SUMMARY
The City of Flagstaff is seeking Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from qualified Artists or Artist Teams to design and paint a large-scale mural on the Buffalo Park Water Tank located at the entrance to Buffalo Park.

The mural must be designed to withstand intense UV radiation and freeze-thaw cycles while deterring graffiti. Up to five artists will be shortlisted to receive a $5,000 honorarium to develop full proposals following a site visit and community research. A pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for January 29, 2026, via Microsoft Teams. Final proposals for this phase are due by February 17, 2026.
