International District Artist - Facilitator RFI

Call for Artists: Community-Designed Art Project

The City’s Public Art and Urban Enhancement Division, Friends of Orphan Signs (FOS), and the National Trust for Historic Preservation (NTHP) is announcing it will place a community-generated public artwork at the southeast corner of the new International District Park next to the library. To ensure the artwork accurately represents the surrounding neighborhoods, Public Art is issuing a Call for Artists to participate in a restorative design process with community.


To create the best community-driven design, Public Art is seeking four visual artists with ties to the District to participate in the design process with community artists. Selected artists will participate in design workshops aimed at generating a visual identity for their respective design of the art piece. Workshops will be free and open to the public, hosted at community non-profit sites in the district.


Artist-facilitators will work with the community to create designs for the potential artwork. Each artist will be paid $3,500 for their workshop process and one final design from which a jury will choose the final artwork. Following the restorative design process, the final construction and fabrication process will result in a large-scale artwork representative of themes and ideas presented by the community.


Friends of Orphan Signs will be leading the artist teams and have employed an International District community artist to be an embedded part of the team.


Deadline: November 25, 2024 at 5 p.m.
