PROJECT BACKGROUND
The City of Durham's Cultural and Public Art Program commissions a variety of public
artworks in collaboration with City departments and other organizations engaged in capital
development projects across Durham, North Carolina. The City of Durham's Cultural and
Public Art Program defines public art as original visual art including, but not limited to,
sculptures, murals, photographic renderings, mosaics, and electronic art installations.
Project locations may include but are not limited to the City's parks, sidewalks, interior and
exterior walls, vehicles, bus stops, and spaces that are visible from public streets and
pedestrian walkways. Public art is traditionally free of admission fees, and administered
through a public process that provides opportunities for the community to provide input.
The City of Durham's Pre-Qualified Artist Registry will be used to select artists when a
project's requirements render it suitable. Selection will be based on the appropriateness of
the artist's medium and experience relevant to specific project requirements. The City
continuously seeks greater diversity and urges artists and artist teams of all backgrounds
and any medium to become part of the pre-qualified registry.
ABOUT THE CITY OF DURHAM
The City of Durham recognizes that Durham's rich cultural heritage is an important part of
what makes our neighborhoods thrive, attracts tourism and business development, and
what brings together the community. Durham supports a vibrant arts community,
historic preservation, and social and cultural diversity through policies, ordinances,
economic incentives, and special events. In 2011, the Durham City Council passed an
ordinance designating up to one percent of all capital improvement project budgets for the
creation of public art. The City then developed the Cultural and Public Arts Program to
coordinate and fund public art projects across Durham.
ELIGIBILITY
Candidates are eligible regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, gender
identification, military status, sexual orientation, marital status, or physical ability. Artists
who are selected to join the City of Durham Pre-qualified Artists Registry are encouraged to

Urban Confluence Silicon Valley seeks proposals for an innovative design for a new landmark in the heart of Silicon Valley. This new landmark will anchor and activate Arena Green at Guadalupe River Park and Gardens, San Jose’s most critical urban park, which rests at the confluence of the Guadalupe River and Los Gatos Creek. The park sits directly across the street from the site of Google’s future 6 million square foot Downtown West Mixed-Use Plan Project, a new BART Station and Diridon Station, which will soon be transformed into the largest transit hub in the western United States. The competition seeks a transformative design complete with dramatic lighting, a net-zero energy approach, and an impressive physical presence that will become a powerful and enduring symbol of Silicon Valley. Proposals can be for a structure, an object, a sculpture, a work of architecture—with an activated landscape to be enjoyed both day and night. We envision a work that will become an iconic destination that embodies Silicon Valley’s culture of innovation, builds civic pride, enhances community life, and welcomes diverse communities from around the world. Three finalists (individuals or teams) selected from Phase 1 will each receive a $150,000 stipend to refine their proposals.

The University of Rochester is requesting proposals for a site-specific original work of art to be installed within the newly constructed Sloan Performing Arts Center. We seek a work that takes inspiration from the natural landscape as well as the history of Rochester and its surrounding areas.

Slated to open in 2021, the Sloan Performing Arts Center overlooks the majestic Genesee River. This modern building is the first space to be specifically designed and dedicated to the performance of music, theatre and dance and represents the university’s commitment to the performing arts as a priority area of study and outreach at this world class research institution. The main lobby of the Arts Center will showcase the awarded work on a 51’x 8’ wall expanse above the box office (8’ from the floor). The first phase of the submission process ends May 15, 2020. A maximum of $30,000 will be awarded.
Proposals submitted must include: One pdf (contents detailed below) and up to five proposal images. At least one image must be scaled appropriately (max 24300px X 2400px), others can include proposed details and none should exceed 5MB.

SculptureTucson (ST) and Tucson Botanical Gardens (TBG) are hosting a joint exhibition of outdoor sculpture related to “Bird Houses and Nests.” All work will be on display in outdoor garden spaces, so artists are encouraged to create work that is large-scale in size. While there is no maximum size restriction, works smaller than 5 feet high will not be considered, unless the piece is mounted on a base, and the entire sculpture plus base is equal to 5 feet. Sculptures must be secured to the base. To be considered for this exhibition, artists are invited to submit digital images of previously completed works. Based on those images, artists will be invited to create a new work for the exhibition. Each selected artist will receive a $500 honorarium, and all sculptures accepted will be available for sale with the artist receiving 70 percent of the price.
Artists may submit three digital images of previously completed work as part of their application. Based on those submitted images, fifteen artists will be selected to create an entirely new work of art for an exhibition with the theme of "Birdhouses and Nests."

PK Yonge Developmental School
An unpredictable, high tech, innovation driven world requires a transformation in K-12 education!
P. K. Yonge' s architecture has always been significant to its influence on K-12 education. From pioneering the university laboratory school mission with professors residing in the building in 1934, to integrating the outdoors as a key educational component on the "new" K-12 campus in 1957, to today’s design innovations that will transform how students and teachers will work together in the 21st century.
P.K. Yonge is the nation’s preeminent lab school. We are affiliated with top 10 University of Florida, and the number one College of Education. Together we are in the midst of designing and testing a transformation in K12 education.
Installing our multi award winning, state-of-the-art, transformative 6-12 building will result in unparalleled educational opportunities for P.K. Yonge and UF College of Education students, as well as unique research opportunities for PKY and UF faculty dedicated to designing and testing a collaborative, inclusive, personalized, tech-enriched, inquiry-driven, mastery-based learning experience.
Our new 6th-12th grade building offers transformed learning spaces that will spark innovation and bring together interdisciplinary university faculty, undergraduate, and graduate students with nationally-recognized practicing K-12 teachers to invent the future of K-12 education. The three story structure includes 8 state-of-the-art STEM labs visible to the center core of the building, and 7 Learning Neighborhoods.
Each neighborhood includes a distance learning lab, seminar room, classrooms, small group project and meeting rooms, as well as collaborative and independent work stations in the common areas. Cutting-edge technology will be ubiquitous but unobtrusive.
P.K. Yonge will serve as a national and international demonstration site for transformations in school design that reduce square footage, cut construction costs, and greatly enhance the K-12 learning experience.
The school building lobby will house a multi-purpose first floor convening center providing space for multi-disciplinary researchers collaborating with P. K. Yonge faculty; University of Florida College of Education professors meeting with aspiring educators; as well as national and international teachers and school leaders meeting with P. K. Yonge's teaching faculty.
Our students represent the diversity of our nation – 52% identify as minorities; 30% are economically disadvantaged; and 17% have learning differences.
Florida’s Art in State Buildings Program:
The Art in State Buildings (ASB) Program acquires artwork for new public facilities built with state funds. The program requires that up to .5% of the construction appropriation be set aside to acquire artwork for permanent display in, on or around the facility.
Since the program began in 1979, more than 1,000 works of art have been purchased or commissioned for Florida public spaces. You'll find them in nearly every Florida county, in locations such as state office buildings, Department of Transportation complexes, Department of Health facilities, courthouses, throughout state university and college campuses.
