    CALL TO ARTISTS & ARTIST TEAMS

    In collaboration with Pima County, the Arts Foundation for Tucson and Southern Arizona (Arts Foundation) is seeking a qualified Public Artist or Artist Team for commission. 

    ARTWORK BUDGET 

    The all-inclusive budget of $22,000 for artwork must cover all costs related to: design, materials, production, transportation and installation of the artwork; permits, taxes, and insurance that may be required by the City of Tucson or Pima County; soil analysis, engineering, and mounting for the artwork. 

    ARTWORK PLACEMENT 

    The artwork is to be functional for use by children throughout the school year and needs to accommodate a range of ages as well as the environmental conditions and cannot interfere with bus/traffic patterns. See Supplementary Resources links provided at the top of the Guidelines. 

    ELIGIBILITY 

    The Public Art opportunity is open to professional Artists and Artist Teams worldwide. All interested Artists and Artist Teams are encouraged and invited to apply, including but not be limited to individuals or teams who are engaged full-time or part-time in the production of eligible works of art, teachers of art, and emerging professional artists (Pima County Administrative Procedure, 3-16, Section II) 

    Note: Artist Teams are required to select a team lead as a point of contact for all communications. If selected for the project, team members will need to enter into a Joint Venture or may designate the team lead as signatory in order to contract with the County. Artists applying as a member of a team are not eligible to also apply as an individual.
