BUDGET: $750,000. The City of Kissimmee Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) seeks to hire an artist/artist team to design and create an entrance / water feature for Ruby Plaza in Lakefront Park, a twenty-five acre park on Lake Tohopekaliga in the City of Kissimmee. Ruby Plaza will be the focal point of a proposed $25 million park renovation project. The public art should create a compelling entrance to the park that "connects" the City's historic waterfront to its downtown. There is opportunity within this site to weave together Kissimmee's past, present and future. The budget includes all costs associated with the entrance/water feature such as artist's design fee, travel, materials, engineering, fabrication, installation, insurance, documentation, sales tax and artist's design fee for collaborating with park design team on integration of public art elements within the park. The selection process shall occur in two phases. Short list artists will receive an honorarium of $5,000 after presentation of proposals. A mandatory site visit is required of shortlisted artist/artist teams. Please read complete call to artists and requirements prior to sending questions and submitting information. Entry fee.
