Since 2016, our mural project has brought beautiful art to our store exteriors and helped Indiana artists grow through their work. This mural project is part of our Growing People through Work initiative, a franchise-wide commitment to build up our employees and the communities where they live and work. The murals are presented in partnership with the Arts Council of Indianapolis.
In 2019, the Jiffy Lube of Indiana mural project received the Americans for the Arts’ National Arts and Business Partnership Award. Jiffy Lube of Indiana is the first Indiana-based company to receive this honor since 2013.
“It is an exciting time to be part of a project like this,” says Steve Sanner, owner of Jiffy Lube of Indiana. “It’s positively impacting our business, but more than that, it is improving our communities and inspiring our people.”
This project has impacted more than twenty Indiana artists. Hear from the artists about how they’ve grown through their work.
We have 25 murals across our 51 Indiana locations featuring impressive murals by local artists. In 2023, seven new artists and one apprentice artist have been commissioned for murals across Indiana with more to be announced as the year progresses.
Aaron Scamihorn: 532 S. S.R. 135, Greenwood
Aaron’s work focuses on digital portrait illustrations and hand-screened prints. He’s passionate about illustrative imagery, and his style displays a retro and vintage vibe. What is less known is that he pursues mural-scale street art with a more whimsical approach. Aaron is also the founder of Craft Brew Doodle Crew, a group that meets at Indiana City Brewing to collaborate and create art.
Martin Kuntz with apprentice Chelsie Liberati: 1270 S. Rangeline Rd., Carmel
Born in the Netherlands, Martin has lived in Indiana since the age of three. He graduated from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore in 2008 with a BFA in Painting. Martin is no stranger to large-scale murals. You might recognize his recent work at Tappers Arcade and Indy CD & Vinyl.
Chelsie Liberati is working as an apprentice on the project. An Indiana-based muralist and illustrator, Chelsie is currently illustrating her second children’s book and is looking forward to creating more large-scale murals.
