Description
Creative Mural & Canvas Artists Wanted for Vibrant Hostel Common Areas!
About the Project
We are looking for creative souls to help us transform our hostel walls into a living gallery! We want to fill our common areas and rooms with original canvas paintings that reflect the spirit of travel, the beauty of Kanyakumari, or your own unique artistic style. Instead of mass-produced decor, we want your art to be the heart of our space.
Your Task
Create Original Art: Conceptualize and paint canvas pieces for our room walls and common areas.
Style Freedom: Whether it’s abstract, landscapes, local culture, or modern minimalism, we want to see your vision.
Leave Your Mark: Each piece will be a permanent part of the hostel, and we’d love for you to sign your work and leave your social media handle/portfolio link for future travelers to see!
What We Provide
Materials: We will provide the canvases, acrylic paints, brushes, and a dedicated space for you to work.
Stay & Vibe: A comfortable bed in our backpacker hostel, a chance to meet travelers from around the world, and the stunning views of Kanyakumari just a walk away.
Inspiration: Access to our common areas, local city walks, and the best sunset/sunrise spots in India to fuel your creativity.
What We’re Looking For
Passionate artists with experience in canvas painting.
A portfolio or photos of your previous work (please share when applying!).
Friendly, social individuals who enjoy the hostel atmosphere.
