Vibrant Parramatta is a City of Parramatta Council initiative supporting local projects that enhance the visual appeal and cultural identity of our city. From bold wall art murals and architectural lighting to carefully restored facades, this grant program helps transform our city, encourage visitation, strengthen community pride, and reinforce our commitment to urban renewal and cultural development.
Property owners with buildings in or near local centres, town centres and high-foot-traffic areas, such as the Parramatta CBD, that have a blank wall or exterior that could be transformed are encouraged to submit a proposal.
Artists are invited to submit expressions of interest for a chance to create an original mural that celebrates our stories, our people, and our place, adding energy and meaning to our urban landscape.
