Our Jackson Home, in partnership with the City of Jackson, is seeking proposals from artists or artist teams to create a functional art installation in an underutilized, high foot traffic sidewalk space of Anderson Park. The art should be installed on the sidewalks or on three existing twelve foot tall awnings, and must exclude seating. Use of the awnings in the installation is allowable, but relocation of the awnings is not allowable. This project aims to bring to life an underutilized space in the park and bring function and interaction to the area. 

  
Functional aspects of this art installation could include, but are not limited to:

* Shade
* Table Tops
* Play Features
* Lighting
* Wayfinding Sculpture
* Sound Sculpture
* Kinetic Sculpture
* Environmental Art

The installation is permanent and will be expected to last for many years to come. The artist will be expected to submit a maintenance plan with their proposal and should consider the materials, durability, and construction of the piece that can withstand outdoor elements with minimal maintenance requirements. The piece should be accessible and safe for all those who interact with it.

  
Purchase of existing art will be taken into consideration if appropriate for the project and site.

Artwork displayed in Anderson Park.

  
**Budget:** Total project budget is $18,850, including but not limited to, artist design and labor fees, artist administration and documentation, supplies, liability insurance, licensing, equipment rental, transportation, and lodging. Expenses outside of the allotted budget will be the responsibility of the chosen Artist.

  
**Honorarium:** $150 for 3 finalists
