Support My Journey to a Dream Muralist Conference

Hello!

My name is Susan Phan, a Lettering Designer & Muralist based in Vancouver Canada. I have dedicated the last 10 years to delivering playful typography, dynamic murals, and cool signage in all kinds of spaces. My lettering goes beyond painting — it's a mission to instill courage, inspire creativity, and build connections within the community.

Growing up, I was always that quiet kid in my own world daydreaming and drawing. Never the loudest person in the room. But had a lot to say and wanted to be seen. Hand lettering became my way of speaking up and painting large words became my way of showing up. While I've been lucky to land rewarding projects from time to time; attracting clients in this industry has not always been easy. As a solo artist, expanding alone without strong support systems has been especially challenging. That's why attending this Muralist Conference in January 2025 is not just a life-changing opportunity, but a dream come true.

This conference is a unique chance to evolve and grow into my truest self as a Lettering Muralist, bringing innovative ideas back to my community. The immersive experience and invaluable insights I’ll gain among like-minded muralists and mentors will empower me to create even more impactful murals that resonate with people on deeper levels.

But I need your assistance in getting there. As the conference is taking place in Texas USA, the costs of attending are substantial and I'm humbly reaching out for your support. Your generous funds will help cover my ticket & accommodations ($1250), food & transportation ($550), and flights ($700).

As a gesture of my appreciation — I will share exclusive behind-the-scenes content from the event and send hand-drawn lettering incentives:

I believe together, we have the power to make a 'mural-cle' through hand-painted lettering.

Thank you for supporting my journey!
