Chicago Sculpture International, in collaboration with the Chicago Park District and parks in the Chicagoland area, is inviting artists to submit proposals for the 2025-2027 Sculpture in the Parks exhibition season (Park Cultural Centers and Arts in the Parks initiatives).

Works must be large-scale and suitable for outdoors. They will be installed on hardscape or softscape (grass), so artists must be prepared for, and make provisions for, either type of installation. Only select sites have concrete pads; all other sites are softscape. Sculptures will be on view for two years, from October 2025 to October 2027 (exact dates to be determined). 

  
**Requirements:**

* Exhibitors must have Commercial General Liability Insurance (Primary and Umbrella) on an occurrence basis with limits not less than $1,000,000 single limit per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage.
* Artists will be required to make a brief recording discussing their sculpture for the Otocast app.
* Upon selection, Artists must be (or become) a member of CSI (see above)
* Upon installation, A written artist statement
* Upon installation, A brief mp3 recording discussing your sculpture for the Otocast app.
