DESCRIPTION
The procuring entity is seeking public art project services for the creation of an engaging and visually compelling public art installation focused on raising awareness of urban heat islands, flooding, and climate change. The project invites creative interpretation while remaining open to additional artistic ideas and themes that align with the overall environmental and community-awareness goals.
The selected vendor will be responsible for developing up to two or three initial design concepts for review by project partners and City staff, refining a final design based on stakeholder input, and participating in community outreach activities as invited. The scope also includes site preparation as needed, execution and completion of the mural or art installation, coordination of project timeline and logistics with a designated City representative, and submission of a long-term preventive maintenance and care plan for the property owner.
If the proposal includes a mural, the vendor must also apply a protective coating suitable for long-term outdoor display. The overall project budget is stated as up to 25,000 USD.
