Halifax Regional Municipality public art opportunities and updates on commissions, installations and unveilings.
The Halifax Regional Municipality is seeking artist-led proposals for the design of an original artwork to be installed in the newly renovated Dartmouth North Community Centre (134 Pinecrest Drive, Dartmouth, NS). The intended site of the artwork is a elevated wall space in the main hallway and gathering area.
Dartmouth North Community Centre
Project Budget: $45,000 + HST
Deadline for Submission: Friday, September 27, 4pm AT
The Dartmouth North Community Centre serves one of HRM’s most vibrant and diverse cultural constituencies. A broad number of user groups take advantage of the Centre’s offerings which include athletics and recreation, arts and cultural expression, community gatherings, family and social support services, educational activities and workshops, and more. Given all of this, it is important that the artwork commissioned through this process be relevant and engaging to a wide range of audiences of all ages, interests, cultural backgrounds and socio-economic realities. Artists are encouraged to engage with community or school groups in the creation of the artwork.
Key Project Goals
- Bring colour and vibrancy to the predominantly white space
- Engage the community and build a sense of belonging to the space
