Over the years, Beautify has completed 1000's of murals and street activations through art. Our goal is to help your organization do the same with the right tools and resources. Here is some guiding information that can help you formulate your strategy for enhancing your community, artistic expression, local culture, and unique identity.


Identify KPI's (Key Performance Indicators) for your Street Art program. Examples:

  • 10 murals in place over 6 months

  • 100 associated social media posts

  • 200 followers

  • 5 inbound requests for murals

  • Create $10,000 in revenue for my organization with Beautify program


Define goals that are important to the organization. Examples:

  • Enhanced cultural experience in defined areas - place-making.

  • Reflect local culture/history

  • Employ local artists.

  • More social media posts and chatter around local street art

  • Community engagement events when street art is unveiled

  • Increased local & tourist foot traffic in defined area / increased spending

  • Increased user-generated marketing for neighborhood/city/organization/

  • Relationship development with key stakeholders/clients/community

  • Reduced graffiti/vandalism/littering

Identify who can be engaged (and how many):

  • Local artists, businesses, government, property owners with walls

  • Influencers - people in your network who would evangelize street art for the community

  • Community groups – schools, churches, clubs & associations, police, sports teams, etc.

Identify how to engage key stakeholders, how often, what the key ask is, and how you will measure success:
