Google Gives $50,000 For MuralFest

Google announced a $50,000 grant to The Dalles Main Street to support the upcoming 2022 Northwest MuralFest.  MuralFest will be held in late August, when a large group of muralists known as the Walldogs will travel to Oregon to paint 15 new murals chosen by residents of The Dalles.  A group of The Dalles business owners and city leaders convinced the Walldogs to choose The Dalles for the home of its 2022 festival which organizers believe will be only the second MuralFest to occur in the Western U.S.  Residents of The Dalles voted on themes for the 15 murals that will be painted during the festival.  Each mural will have a lead painter guiding multiple artists to paint and complete the murals through the festival weekend.  Along with the painting, the festival will include food, crafts, music, and vendors.
