The city of Tacoma is seeking artists and/or artist teams to submit qualifications to create an art plan, with a budget of $30,000, for the Tacoma Mall area. The project is funded through the Madison District Green Infrastructure Project, a permeable pavement streetscape project led by the city's Environmental Services Department, as part of the City's 1 Percent for Art program which dedicates 1 percent of construction costs from public capital projects to the creation of public art. Designated as one of 29 Puget Sound Regional Growth Centers, the Tacoma Mall area is slated for significant growth over the next 10 to 15 years. It is also located over the South Tacoma Aquifer, which provides supplemental drinking water for Tacoma. Applicants must be 18 years or older, reside in the states of Washington or Oregon, and have demonstrated experience in the specialized area of public art planning. The deadline for submissions is February 8, 2023. Interested artists and/or artist teams may attend an optional Zoom info session on January 18, 2023 from noon - 1 PM. Access details to the Zoom info session will be shared on the city's official social media platforms when available. Application details are available at cityoftacoma.org/ArtsOpps.
