Project Description: The City of Jefferson, Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department, is seeking proposals for public sculptures to be displayed at Community Park in Jefferson City, Missouri.
This project aims to increase community interest for public art and to offer artists a unique opportunity to showcase their original sculptural works that honor those who struggled and persevered in the local Historic Foot District area. Each sculpture will serve as a storytelling marker to communicate the historical significance of the Foot District and surrounding community.
The theme for the next selection should focus on the public safety and commitment aspects of daily life for African Americans who lived and worked in this area between the 1900s and 1960s.
The proposed concept should be an art piece inspired by the history of the local area as well as stories from those who lived, witnessed, and experienced segregation through generations. A maximum of two entries per artist may be submitted for consideration.
