Call for Artists // Art Fencing Design for the Arts and Culture District
The theme for the project Imagine Park City envisions the past, present and future of creativity in the Park City community. It considers the evolution of the arts in Park City and captures the unique spirit of local artistic expression involving Park City’s values – Historic Character, Small Town, Sense of Community, Natural Setting. The goals of the project are to beautify construction infrastructure around the future site of the Park City Arts + Culture District in a way that will work in any season and makes sense for the location, engage the community by soliciting art from local community members and artists, engage the community in City Council’s top priority of arts and culture, and the development of the Park City Arts + Culture District, and integrate the theme of the project with the scale and physical space of the fencing.
Park City Municipal seeks proposals from Artist(s)/Teams to submit two-dimensional artwork that coincides with the Imagine Park City theme. Funding is available immediately to commission original artworks to be printed on construction fencing located around the future site of the Park City Arts + Culture District. Four (4) Artist(s)/Teams will be selected to have their works reproduced on fencing. Original artwork will be acquired into the City’s public art collection, reproduced through a printing services company, and installed onto fencing. Each selected artist will be paid for their original art and use of their artwork image.
Who: Open to Summit County Community Members. Artists from outside of Summit County will be considered, but Summit County community member submissions will be prioritized.
What: City is looking for 2D artwork along the theme of “Imagine Park City” to print onto the construction fencing of the Arts and Culture District.
