Welcome to Uproar!

 Uproar Festival of Public Art returns August 1- 23, 2025!  

Sixty bold, high-impact, outdoor works of art will be showcased throughout the downtown communities of Chapel Hill, Carrboro, and Hillsborough, and cash prizes will be awarded based on public voting and a jury panel of experts.   

Think of Uproar as a big, artsy scavenger hunt. Uproar is free, accessible, and family friendly – no tickets required.
