Help the city of Clearwater add art to even the most unexpected of places: the dumpsters! The city of Clearwater will provide the blank canvas (the dumpsters) and all of the necessary supplies. Participants need only supply their time, creativity and ideas for beautifying underutilized spaces. The dumpsters at your school, apartment building or local business are just waiting for a makeover!
Business and property owners interested in having their dumpster painted may contact the city of Clearwater’s Neighborhoods Coordinator at neighborhoods@myclearwater.com.
Materials the city of Clearwater will provide: five gallons of industrial enamel paint (black, white, yellow, red and blue), paintbrushes, sidewalk chalk for outlining the mural, paint rollers, plastic gloves, tarp to protect the pavement from paint, paint stirring sticks, paint mixing containers, traffic cones, traffic safety vests and painters tape.
Please note that the city of Clearwater may only process three applications per month. If more than three groups apply in any given month, their applications will be added to a waitlist for the following month. The Dumpster Art online application is available here.
