Building Mural

Come for the Conference

Stay and explore the mural art

Public arts are crucial in placemaking. Installing public art gives the artist the opportunity to contribute their creativity to the public, and for the public to expand their own imaginations by experiencing the arts. Murals, sculptures, performances all contribute to civic pride and identity; I encourage every city and township in New Jersey to embrace the arts and artists within your community. We're thrilled to have installed our 100th mural as the Atlantic City Arts Foundation and invite attendees to the annual League of Municipalities Conference to stop by and see "Always Dreaming, Always Growing" and any of the other spectacular murals around Atlantic City during your visit.
