NPNHA commissioned GoodSpace Murals to lead a community art project, bringing people together to design and paint a place-based mural with Missouri River heritage—past and present—as the theme. The project began with a series of public input sessions and wrapped up with hands-on, family-friendly community paint parties where participants colored in paint-by-numbers style on 5’x5’ parachute cloth panels. The Missouri River Heritage Mural will be installed along the riverfront in summer, 2023.

Partners: GoodSpace Murals, the North Dakota Consensus Council, the Downtowners Association, Sons of Norway, Dakota West Arts Council, Bismarck-Burleigh Public Health, BisMarket, Bismarck Parks and Recreation, and NDDOT.
