Call to Artists: Outdoor Sculpture on Main Street Friday, February 06, 2009
The Public Art Committee, on behalf of the City of Chattanooga, is currently accepting proposals for the second in a series of two rotating outdoor sculpture exhibitions installed along the sidewalks of Main Street. Celebrating public art is a huge part of the Southside’s revitalization, and supporting initiatives like this one proves to the world that Chattanoogans, on the Southside or otherwise, value artists as important members of the urban community.
The city will select six sculptures to adorn Main Street, beginning at the corner of Market and extending to the Baldwin Street intersection. Works will be on display for 24 months, and must be durable and able to withstand public interaction.
All proposals are due to the city on March 20, 2009. Additionally, Main and Mocha will host an artist workshop on Saturday, February 21, from 1 to 3 pm.
