Public Art Update
Selection Panel
As directed by City Council, The City of Calgary is continuing to move forward with plans to transition the public art program to an external organization.
For more information, visit calgary.ca/public-art.
Organizations interested in running Calgary’s future public art program were asked to submit their interest by responding to a request for proposals (RFP) by December 30, 2020.
A selection panel that includes Calgarians and Calgary arts professionals have completed their review of findings from the extensive public engagement that took place in 2020. The selection panel will now review RFP submissions and make a recommendation on what organization should run Calgary’s future public art program.
To review the selection panel, visit calgary.ca/selection-panel.
The City hopes to announce the successful organization in April 2021 and begin the transition process which is expected to take up to three years.
