Tile Wall Mural Project

The Euless Library Foundation (“ELF”) was formed in 1995. Our mission is “enhance the visibility and growth of the Euless Public Library through the purchase of public art and the support of programs and projects that will enable the Library to become the cultural center of Euless.”

Through the years, we have presented the City and the Euless Public Library with seven (7) works of art.* For more information about ELF, visit our website at www.eulesslibraryfoundation.org.

In 2008, the Euless Public Library is embarking on an expansion that will increase the size of the library and add a room focused on historical preservation. What better way to complement the Library’s emphasis on history than by commissioning art that commemorates those people and events that have made Euless what it is today.

Imagine a unique reminder of Euless history for all who visit the Euless Public Library.

Picture a cherished work of public art that celebrates the pioneers who settled Euless and helped make it the vibrant city it is today.

Picture an individually designed wall of hand sculpted and painted tiles designed to highlight animals and plants indigenous to Euless and to honor those places and events that formed the cornerstone of this city—all to serve as a source of inspiration for future generations.

You can help turn those visions into reality by reserving your tile today or indicating your interest in a tile. Each tile will commemorate places, events or industries that were important parts of Euless’ past.  The mural will also include pictures of animals, plants, birds and other flora and fauna indigenous to the Euless area. The completed mural will be 6’ x 9’. Tiles range in size from a single “book spine” to 12”x 12” picture tiles as indicated by the sample of the Himes Log House to the right.

There will be a limited number of tiles in each size available on a first come-first served basis.

Stake Your Claim! to Euless history today by reserving a tile in this distinctive mural. Select the tile you want to reserve from the tile list, fill out the order form and return it along with your check to the Euless Library Foundation at Euless Library Foundation, ATTN: Tile Project, 201 N. Ector Drive, Euless, TX 76039.
