Seattle Public Schools is inviting SPS high school student artists to participate in the Memorial Stadium Art Wall Program. This opportunity gives students the chance to create public art inspired by the meaning and legacy of Memorial Stadium and the role it plays in Seattle’s community.

Selected students will design large-scale murals that will be professionally printed and installed as a long-term feature of Memorial Stadium. They will become a major part of the stadium experience, celebrating student creativity and personal storytelling.

Students will gain professional public art experience for their portfolio, resume, and applications; recognition for artwork; and personal and professional growth.

Eligibility

SPS high school students can apply individually or in pairs. Applicants must demonstrate a genuine passion for visual art and a commitment to completing their work.
