Our Mission
Scranton Tomorrow’s Mural Arts Program is a public art initiative that promotes history, culture, diversity and creativity. Our mission is to enhance the lives of Scranton’s residents and visitors through mural art.
Our Program
Scranton Tomorrow launched its Mural Arts Program in 2021. Designed to transform the Downtown landscape, and connect communities, murals reflect the City’s history and qualities that make Scranton unique.
QR codes are posted at each site, allowing visitors to use their smartphones to embark on brief, self-guided tours. Through partnerships with professional artists specializing in mural art and conservation, a set of guidelines for future public art projects has been developed.
Support Public Art
Public art initiatives such as Scranton Tomorrow's Mural Arts Program would not be possible without the generous support of community-minded businesses, organizations, and individuals. To learn more about how you can become a partner, contact Leslie Collins, President/CEO, Scranton Tomorrow.
