Blackthorn Restaurant and Irish Pub recently announced a call to artists, inviting them to submit renderings of an Irish-themed mural proposal for a wall space in their downstairs dining room at the restaurant, 61 Church St., New Brunswick.
The 8-foot-by-5-foot popcorn drywall texture is spaced between two speakers. Artist must supply their own art supplies.
Submissions are due by Sept. 1, and will be hung around the restaurant and showcased on social media. Guests will get the chance to cast votes, in-house only, for their favorites. The contest voting will run through Nov. 22, after which a winner will be awarded a $500 cash prize, and a plaque with their name, the title of the mural and a personal recognition.
