Cedar Taylor Public Art

call for artists 4APPLICATION DEADLINE:
April 30, 2016

The Cedar Taylor Development Association, with the generous support of FutureHeights, would like to commission a permanent art installation for the Cedar Taylor Business District in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. The budget is $3,000.00.

What type of art installation are we seeking?
You tell us. Do you want to paint a mural on the side of a building? Paint an abstract piece somewhere in the business district? Install a sculpture? We are reaching out to the artist community for proposals on what you would like to install given our budget. It is up to you to determine what you can do with $3,000. We have no preferred medium, so be as creative as you want. We just ask that it be a permanent

Where do we want it installed?
It must be installed in the Cleveland Heights portion of the Cedar Taylor Business District. While we absolutely love and support the University Heights portion of our business district, a portion of these funds were sourced from the City of Cleveland Heights, as such, the money must stay in the City.

Selection Criteria
The Cedar Taylor Development Association Board of Directors will vote on the entries to determine three finalists. The three finalists will be voted on by a public vote via our FaceBook page  over a period of one week. The finalists will be posted separately and the one with the highest number of “likes” after one week will be determined the winner.

Proposal Due Date
Proposals should be submitted via email to Kevin Smith, President of the Cedar Taylor Development Association Board of Directors at smithkp@gmail.com. The proposals are due by April 30, 2016.

Other Information
Your proposed piece will either involve private property or public space. We will approach the property owner(s) and/or municipality on your behalf to secure permission to install your proposed piece. We will only present finalists for a public vote that have been approved by the property owner(s) and/or local municipality.
