Call to ARtists

 

Revitalizing Waterbury (RW) together with the Stowe Street Alley Steering Committee (Committee) announces their search for an artist or artist team for the design, fabrication, and installation of a permanent Medallion Feature and Gateway Feature at the Stowe Street Alley in Waterbury, Vermont.

  1. Artistic Merit of Concept
  2. Ability to Meet the Project Goals
  3. Contextual Appropriateness
  4. Collaborative Approach
  5. Proven Experience
