Pasadena’s Cultural Affairs Division will facilitate a virtual, public community meeting & artist workshop on Wednesday, December 7, 2022, at 1:00 pm. Meeting details and the virtual meeting link will be provided on the City’s Cultural Affairs website.
The City’s Cultural Affairs Division is now accepting applications from professional artists and artist teams through January 15, 2023. Series IV of the Rotating Program will include eight sculptural artworks to be installed at existing City-owned sites in each City Council District. This opportunity is open to artists based in California and seeks submissions of existing, loaned artwork, as well as proposals for new commissioned, site-responsive artworks in a variety of styles, materials, and approaches from a diverse pool of artists.
Established in 2011, the Rotating Public Art Program is intended to complement the permanency of both the Private Development and Capital Public Art Programs by placing artworks throughout the City that activate unusual locations, transforming small, often unnoticed areas into exciting destinations for visitors and residents to discover. By presenting original artworks at established locations, the program encourages residents and visitors to circulate throughout the City and experience the entirety of each exhibition.
For submission details, visit: cityofpasadena.net/arts or contact Corey Dunlap, Public Art Coordinator, Planning & Community Development Department: (626) 744-7547.
