What it is

This is a two-stage artist selection process for permanent public art installations. The Fairwinds Park project seeks artwork for a location near Cooksville Creek with protected wetlands, ideal for artists interested in community, nature, and ecology connections. The Cooksville and Iggy Kaneff Park project seeks a labyrinth-inspired sculpture with accompanying screen that reflects natural and cultural identity of the area and fosters a journey-based experience. Up to three artists will be shortlisted from each call to develop proposals.
