Hello Pierce County artists!

Please see the attached PDF for the full Call for Arts Curation that is being run by Tacoma Housing Authority.

OVERVIEW
City of Tacoma and Pierce County artists are encouraged to submit qualifications to Tacoma Housing Authority (THA) for Arts Curation at our newest residential developments, Housing Hilltop North and South. THA currently has $30,000 dedicated to this project across both buildings. Artists and Art Professionals of color are encouraged to apply. Fee for curation services will be included within available funding.

THA has identified the theme "Honoring the Past, Leaving Space for the Future" for this work, and is asking for artist qualifications to manage curation of:

  1. two original mural pieces (one in each building), only if funding allows;
  2. the selection of art in varying sizes and mediums produced by multiple local artists for installation in both buildings.

DEADLINE: November 8, 2024
