Call for artist Proposals for the Hull Street Library due this Thursday (4/20/17)

by | Apr 17, 2017 | COMMUNITY

The city of Richmond’s Public Arts Comission has a little over 50K in funding for a new instillation on the grounds at the Hull Street Library in Southside.

You must submit your proposal physically which might help reduce the number of submissions so get your creative juices flowing and check out details for how to submit a proposal below via the PAC:

The City of Richmond’s Public Art Commission is seeking qualified artists to create outdoor
artwork for the Hull Street Library. The site is in the front of the library within the existing brick circle. Existing plantings and signage will be relocated prior to artist installation. The funding allocation for the project is $51,000, inclusive of all artist’s costs and installation. Submissions are due April 20, 2017, at 4 pm

See the call and how to apply here

Please note that we cannot accept electronic submissions at this time and all entries must be received by the date and time posted.

Questions about the call? Want to drop it off in person? Questions about the Public Art Program or just want to chat about Public Art? Stop by our Open Office Hours this week Wednesday from 3 pm-5 pm on the 5th floor of City Hall.
