Hayward Area Mural Writing Project

The goal of the project is to find a mural or utility box to inspire your writing. Think creatively. Any format, poem, short story, non-fiction, song, memoir will do. Check out the city web-site: Mural Program | City of Hayward - Official website  or https://www.hayward-ca.gov/sites/default/files/basic-pages/MuralFlyer_2014.pdf for more on the murals. You don't have to live in the Hayward Area to participate in the project. Just peruse the pictures on the websites to inspire your writing. If you live locally, take a picture to show the group. More than one writer may pick the same mural. Murals from around the East Bay are welcomed. Let the muse guide your writing. Multiple submissions accepted. 

Send submissions in 12pt font in an attachment to [email protected] with Mural in the subject line.
