Mural Arts’ Tacony LAB Community Arts Center is seeking applications for an artist residency to  take place Summer/Fall 2024 for a 3 month residency taking place from August 1, 2024 to  October 31. 

 The goal of this artist residency is to create a new public artwork in the Tacony neighborhood  while engaging the community in the Tacony LAB Community Arts Center.  The Tacony LAB is located at 6918 Torresdale Avenue.
