Great public art shouldn't only exist in major cities. Small towns and suburban communities across the Pacific Northwest have vibrant stories, rich histories, and unique identities that deserve to be seen. PSAA bridges the gap, bringing professional artists, proven project management, and community-centered design to places that might not otherwise have access to large-scale public art. We believe every community, regardless of size or budget, deserves artwork that reflects who they are.
With years of experience managing complex public art projects, PSAA has become the go-to organization for communities and businesses seeking authentic, high-quality murals. We don't just paint walls; we facilitate conversations, connect stakeholders with talented regional artists, and navigate the logistics of everything from grant applications to permitting. Our track record speaks for itself: partnerships with cities, schools, healthcare facilities, private businesses, and nonprofits throughout Oregon and Washington.
HOW IT WORKS
COMMISSIONED PROJECTS
PSAA has successfully managed dozens of commissioned projects across the Pacific Northwest, from small business storefronts to government buildings. We work closely with clients to match them with the right artists and ensure the final artwork authentically represents the community it serves.
GRANT PROJECTS
Many communities want murals but need funding support to make them happen. PSAA specializes in grant-funded projects, partnering with small towns and organizations to secure funding, organize mural festivals, and other projects to bring transformative public art to the entire Pacific Northwest.
