Public Square National Call-to-Artists – RFQ #06-26

Total project budget: $350,000

Metro Arts Commission seeks artists for three projects to infuse art into the design and architecture of the new Public Square, a four-acre park adjacent to the Metro Courthouse, which is currently undergoing major restoration. Two of the projects, open to any artists in the United States, will be located in two adjacent quiet courtyards, with seating areas, at the southern edge of the Square. A third project, to be designed by a Tennessee artist, is for dispersed artwork creatively placed throughout the site.
