The Arts Council of Fairfax County, VA is accepting qualifications from artists or artist teams interested in a public art engagement opportunity in the County’s Tysons area. The selected artist/team will design, fabricate, and install a temporary, portable work of art that will engage residents, visitors, and area employees in the discussion of public art and the role of the arts in Tysons. While designing the artwork, the artist/team must take into consideration the transitional nature of the Tysons area including current, future, and planned conditions. This project is funded in part by an Our Town grant from the National Endowment for the Arts for creative placemaking. The artist fee is $40,000.
