Public Art 101

Join us Wednesday, August 31st 6:00-8:00 PM for a free Request for Qualifications (RFQ) Workshop at the MARN ART + CULTURE HUB (191 N Broadway) co-sponsored by Public Art Services.

In anticipation of the release of the Wisconsin Center District (WCD) Expansion Project Public Art Request for Qualifications (RFQ), Public Art Services will be offering a free Public Art 101 course for artists in the Milwaukee area. This event will take place Wednesday, August 31st at 6:00pm at MARN ART + CULTURE HUB, 191 N Broadway, Milwaukee, WI 53202. This event is geared toward emerging and established artists working in a variety of mediums who are new to the world of Public Art and aims to demystify the public art process, encouraging local and regional artists to apply for these opportunities. 

This one-hour-long talk will cover what goes into the creation of a successful RFQ response, including preparing a compelling statement of interest, selecting photos that best convey your artistic practice and other helpful tips to allow your submission to stand out. Whether you’ve applied to RFQs in the past or this will be your first time applying, this is the event for you. There will be time reserved at the end of the presentation for Q&A. 

To RSVP for this FREE event email your first and last name to trey@publicartservices.com.
