PUBLIC ART

The Public Art Mural Program unites art, sport, and culture to tell the story of North Texas through large-scale public murals celebrating soccer, diversity, community pride, and inclusion. Installed in high-visibility locations across the region, each mural becomes a lasting symbol of unity and a permanent cultural legacy long after the World Cup.

This initiative supports our mission to advance community engagement, foster civic identity, and celebrate local culture through accessible public spaces. Developed through partnerships with local and international artists, municipal governments, schools, and cultural organizations.
