Bid Title:	Call for Artists: Public Art Murals - Pre-Qualified List of Muralists for Future Projects
Category:	City of Dublin Bid Postings
Status:	Open

Description: The City of Dublin invites artists with experience creating murals to submit qualifications to become pre-qualified for upcoming public art projects to be installed on City property during the next three years. From this list of pre-qualified artists, the City will invite artists to submit proposals for specific projects. BACKGROUND The City of Dublin, incorporated in 1982, is one of the fastest growing communities in California. Dublin is located in the Tri-Valley region, about 30 miles east of San Francisco, bordered by the cities of Pleasanton, Livermore, and San Ramon. Dublin has a robust public art program, with a municipal collection of more than 35 works, primarily outdoor sculptures, murals, and tile works acquired or commissioned in the last 20 years. In 2020, the City updated its Public Art Master Plan. The Public Art Master Plan emphasizes highly visible artwork along major thoroughfares and prioritizes artworks within Downtown Dublin. All expected mural projects are anticipated to be in highly visible areas and experience high volumes of vehicle and/or pedestrian traffic. MURAL OPPORTUNITIES Anticipated Mural Opportunities The City of Dublin anticipates the completion of mural(s) throughout the City of Dublin in the next three years. Exact locations are yet to be confirmed, but may include above ground utility enclosures, building facades, and other locations in the public right-of-way or on City owned property. Budgets will vary by specific project but are anticipated to range from $15,000 to $50,000 and are intended to include all costs, including site and surface preparation, materials, painting, and finish coats. Detailed specifications and project scope will be shared with artists selected to develop site specific proposals. Artwork selection timelines will vary depending on the specific project scope. It is anticipated that the City will begin its first mural project in Summer 2025 on a backup generator enclosure at the Dublin Public Library (200 Civic Plaza. Dublin, CA 94568).
