MURAL REGISTRY REQUIREMENTS
PURPOSE
The City of Chicago celebrates the long and rich tradition of murals and other street art, and recognizes
the enormous contribution these artworks make to the City’s artistic vitality and cultural vibrancy. The
Mural Registry was established to protect, preserve, and celebrate murals as important public assets.
The Mural Registry is managed and maintained by the Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events
(DCASE).
WHAT IS A MURAL?
Section 7-28-065 of the Municipal Code of Chicago describes graffiti as an inscription, drawing, mark, or
design that is etched, painted, sprayed, or drawn directly upon the exterior of any building or other
structure and is visible from the public way.
While this is the technical language from the ordinance, DCASE has chosen to use the word “mural” as
an umbrella term that includes both graffiti and art murals, mentioned in Section 13-20-550 of the
Municipal Code of Chicago, that have been registered or that people seek to register.
ELIGIBILITY
The Mural Registry catalogues and acknowledges the City’s growing collection of murals, and will include
a list of completed murals created on private and public property. Property owners, artists, and community
members may register existing murals so that they may be catalogued in the Registry.
Existing murals on private property: A property owner may apply to DCASE to register a mural
by submitting a completed application along with the requested supporting documentation. Artists
or organizations involved in the creation of an existing mural on private property may submit an
application with a letter of approval or the signature of the property owner for the application to be
considered complete.
Existing murals on City-owned property: Members of the community (including artists and
organizations involved in the creation of an existing mural) and aldermen may submit an
application to DCASE to register murals that exist on City-owned property. Applicants may be
asked to demonstrate proof of proper approvals and permits received in the creation of the
existing mural before the mural will be added to the Registry.
Permission walls on private and City-owned property: Artists and property owners may
submit applications to register “permission walls,” i.e., exterior walls that have been specifically
designated and approved by property owners for artists to paint on a rotating basis.
REVIEW CRITERIA
DCASE will only review completed applications submitted with the required documentation. In addition,
applications will be reviewed based on the following criteria before being admitted to the Mural Registry.
Murals must be in good condition.
Murals may not be commercial in nature and may not depict a product placement for a business.

muralregistry@cityofchicago.org
Murals will not be registered if they contain known gang symbols or depict an unreasonable or
offensive act, utterance, gesture, or display that creates a clear and present danger of a breach of
peace or imminent threat of violence.
Murals may not depict material harmful to minors.
REGISTRATION
Upon review and approval of an application, DCASE will send notice of approval to the contacts listed in
the application along with an assigned unique Mural Registration ID number and instructions for
placement of the Mural Registry emblem. Within 30 days of receipt of instructions, applicants must
provide documentation of the emblem affixed to the mural to complete the registration process.
MAINTENANCE
The City shall have no duty to maintain registered murals or to protect them against vandalism.
REMOVAL CRITERIA
An owner who wishes to remove a mural from the Registry should notify DCASE at least seven days
before removal or alteration of that mural. DCASE reserves the right to remove murals from the Registry
for various reasons, including if they are found to have prohibited content or have become significantly
altered or damaged. The Department of Streets and Sanitation, in consultation with DCASE, may cover or
remove registered murals if conditions requiring this step occur.
MURAL REGISTRATION APPLICATION
To be registered, murals must be in good condition. A separate application is required for each mural on
a site. A single application may be submitted for a permission wall.
