Downtown Ferndale Seeking Outdoor Art for Two-Year
Display
(Ferndale DDA, April 4, 2015)
Do you dabble or specialize in outdoor-medium arts? The Ferndale Downtown Development Authority (DDA) is searching for artists for our ART Town: The Exhibit, a two-year outdoor art exhibition throughout Downtown Ferndale. The goal of the exhibit is to foster the excitement and interest in public art, serve as a catalyst for private investments and showcase our community as an art town. The exhibit will consist of 10 artists of various outdoor mediums (ie: sculpture, murals, interactive, 3-D) and will be on display for a two-year duration. The Ferndale DDA has already secured 8 artists and has teamed up with the Ferndale Chamber of Commerce and Ferndale Public Schools in supporting the Artist in You program, but we are looking for two more artists to be part of the exhibit.
Ferndale DDA will pay artists an honorarium of $500 per artist. We encourage artists to be creative in their selection of artists and art mediums. All art must be durable for the outdoors. All art should be insured by artist. Selected artists will receive an honorarium upon installation of their work. All artwork will be on display for two years.
Applications are due no later than April 15, 2015. Selected Artists will be announced May 1, 2015. Exhibit to be installed by May 31, 2015, and in place on exhibit until May 2017.
