The Art-in-Architecture Program of the Capital Development Board is pleased to announce a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to Illinois professional artists for the purchase of permanent original art for the College of Lake County (CLC), Lakeshore Campus in Waukegan, Illinois. The submission instructions for this RFQ are for purchase and not commission.

  
The total budget is $71,635 and will be used to purchase artwork from artists in a variety of media and themes. The College is interested in purchasing “mini-series” from multiple artists.

  
**Artistic Objective:**

The College is interested in artwork that celebrates the vibrant and diverse Waukegan community. CLC explicitly values diversity of individuals, cultures, thought, and expression—making students feel represented when they walk through its doors. 

  
The College is seeking to purchase interior artwork to be placed in public, focal areas throughout the building. Final location of the artwork will be decided and hung by the College’s staff. Type of media for this project is open and includes two-dimensional media such as painting, drawing, photography, textiles, collage, mixed-media, and small-scale three-dimensional pieces suitable for hanging. 

  
The work must be framed, if applicable, but does not require hanging hardware. Wooden frames are preferred as the College will attach security hardware for hanging. Acid-free matting, backing, and mounting materials are required to achieve museum quality longevity.
