CDA Arts Commission Seeks Artists for Mural Projects

Posted: 7/14/2016 5:29:47 PM
 

The City of Coeur d'Alene Arts Commission invites artists/artist teams to submit qualifications for consideration for two painted mural projects:

  • Sherman Square Park located at 315 Sherman Avenue in Downtown Coeur d’Alene
  • Centennial Trail Underpass

There is no theme for this Call to Artists; allowing for a creative interpretation that will reflect the vibrant beauty of the area. This call is open to all artists, designers, or creative individuals residing in the states of Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and Montana, regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, age, marital status, physical or mental disability. Public art can be a change agent for the community.  It creates and establishes neighborhood and community identity and also enhances the visual landscape and character of the city.  It turns ordinary spaces into community landmarks and promotes community dialogue and, most important, it's accessible to everyone. Information packets are available at City Hall, 710 E. Mullan Avenue, or by clicking HERE.

Artist proposals are due by 5:00 p.m., August 13, 2016.  To ensure fairness, no extensions or waivers of deadlines will be granted.  Artists with questions are encouraged to contact Sam Taylor, Arts Commission liaison, at [email protected]
