Request for Art Proposals for KPDSB new Culture and Training Centre in Dryden
Request for Art Proposals
The Keewatin-Patricia District School Board, in conjunction with our community partners, is seeking local artists to submit proposals for art work to be permanently displayed at the new Cultural and Training Centre facility. The proposal should include submissions for a major piece of art work to be displayed around the main entrance and lobby of the facility as well as smaller pieces to be displayed throughout the building.
The art work should complement the beauty and practicality of the facility by promoting the concept of the multi-services it provides. The facility offers a quality venue for education, training, entertainment and cultural events. The auditorium is designed to be an innovative multi-use space for hosting cultural and entertainment events as well as supporting large group meetings and training seminars. The spacious and welcoming entrance areas are overemphasized with wood. Wood is used in all the architectural/structural elements of the building and reflects its beauty and structural charm.
All forms of art work will be considered including sculptures, paintings, carvings, etc. Completion must be in time for the grand opening scheduled for mid-October, 2004.
Proposals must be received by the undersigned by July 15th, 2004. Proposals are to include representations or prototypes, descriptions and explanations of the concepts, timelines and a breakdown of costs.
