Now Accepting Mural Location Proposals
The Peoria Guild of Black Artists (PGOBA), in collaboration with the Ameren Illinois Energy Efficiency Program, is working to bring art to the public in a big way and highlight the importance of sustainability and energy efficiency in the community. This project is taking the form of three murals created by PGOBA that will be put up across the city in three locations. The selected locations will also have the opportunity to apply for energy efficiency upgrades but are not limited to those selected for a mural.
Deadline to apply is February 28, 2022
Program overview
We are looking for 3 locations to participate in the following:
A mural painted by PGOBA

Energy Efficiency Upgrade
Location/Business owners can partner with Ameren Illinois to design a unique energy-efficient upgrade plan specific to your business’s needs!
