Request for Proposals (RFP)
The purpose of this call for proposal is to invite arts-based organizations with expertise in public participatory mural making to submit proposals to manage the mural making component of NYC MAP.
NYC MAP started in 2016 and is modeled after the Philadelphia Mural Arts, Porch Light project. NYC MAP is a community-driven, place-based initiative that brings together mental health consumers (individuals receiving behavioral health treatment and/or recovery services at community based organizations/clinics), behavioral health organizations, families, friends, and the broader community to produce high-quality public murals. Artists and mental health consumers work together to dialogue and educate about mental illness and its perceptions by building interpersonal ties and social networks with the aim to reduce stigma, improve community cohesion, and transform the built environment.
NYC MAP engages with different behavioral health organizations for each mural. For the upcoming fiscal year (July 1 2017 – June 30, 2018), we have partnered with Community Access (1750 Davidson Ave Bronx, NY 10453), Acacia Network (915 Westchester Ave Bronx, NY 10459), and Services for the Underserved (1125 Fulton Street Brooklyn, NY 11238).
Minimum Qualifications:
The managing organization must demonstrate the following:
- 5 years of experience managing the execution and installation of community murals and public art installations.
- Demonstrated ability utilizing creative and arts-based practices to support mental health of diverse communities and/or traditionally marginalized groups.
- Demonstrated ability managing multiple artists working on diverse projects that are unified under broader and long-term community-building goals.
Team members must demonstrate the following:
- Experience working with mental health professionals and/or adult mental health consumers in an arts-based setting.
- Experience developing and/or collaborating on curriculums that utilize arts-based practices to support mental health outcomes of project participants.
- Experience incorporating arts-based and/or mental health themes into broader public events.
For the application and full details, please see the attached RFP document:
This proposal due date is October 20, 2017 at 5pm EST. Proposals should be sent to [email protected] Proposals received after the deadline may be disqualified from funding consideration.

A nice touch
Verified Purchase
Location: San Jose, CA
I ordered the sugar cookie mix to go with the heart-shaped cookie cutters for a Kitchen Themed Bridal Shower. For the bride who enjoys baking it seemed like a fun party favor. The best part, though, was being able to personalize the label with the Bride and Groom's names, wedding date and order it in the color of her bridesmaid dresses! It all came together really nicely and people really enjoyed the favors.
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
So sweet!

I bought this for a hostess/entertaining-themed shower for my sister-in-law-to-be. It was a part of the favor, which also included Beau-coup's heart-shaped mini-cookie cutters, the mini-whisk, and a cookie, and all were a HUGE hit! The one difficulty I had was getting the labels on the packaging, but I am willing to take some of the blame for that...
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
A very good favor

A very sweet and funny wedding favor for our guests at our wedding in December. The packages could be a bit bigger if I should say something negative otherwise very good.
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Great Bridal Shower Favor!

Great gift - everyone thought it was such a cute idea for a Shower gift!
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Q:I understand that affixing label can be tricky - I cant afford to make mistakes . What is the best approach?
Does it come with baking instruction ?
I would assume so but just checking since the question was not previously answered on the Q & A
ready to order but just wanted to know about above

This personalized sugar cookie mix is the perfect way to show your wedding guests how sweet your love is. Each glossy white bag of sugar cookie mix comes with a personalized label and enough mix to make eight scrumptious sugar cookies. Label designs come in one of three themes: classic, fall, and winter. Just pick a design and add your own special message with up to three lines of text. Self-sticking labels arrive on a separate sheet, some minor assembly required. For a creatively chic way to sweeten this practical favor, adorn each bag with an optional heart handle wire whisk in addition to the bow. Each bag contains enough mix to make eight scrumptious sugar cookies!
