Request for Proposals: TEMPO 2016 Temporary Public Art Project

Deadline: March 10, 5 pm

Proposals are requested from professional visual artists or artist teams for site-specific, short-term artwork or time-based artworks at pre-selected City-owned sites across Austin, including parkland, libraries, right-of-way, and community centers. Only one proposal per artist or artist team will be accepted. Artists may not apply as both an individual and as a team member on separate projects. Emerging and experienced artists are encouraged to apply. The budgets for artwork may range from $5000 to $10,000 for each commissioned work. Multiple commissions will be awarded. Professional artists who live in the Austin metropolitan area (Travis, Willamson, Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Burnet, and Blanco counties) are eligible to apply.
