The Multicultural Sculpture Park and Healing Garden in Ronan Park and the North River Commission are currently seeking submissions for the creation of a series of new art pieces to be installed in Chicago’s Albany Park neighborhood. All sculptures need to remain in the garden for approximately one calendar year. Additionally, each art piece must be able to withstand the harsh weather conditions associated with a Chicago winter, including: high wind-speeds and frigid temperatures. But even more importantly, the sculptures themselves must embody the sentiments motivating the original creation of the garden, which is to provide a place for residents of Albany Park to rest, reflect, and renew.
If you are an artist, and you are interested in creating a sculpture piece in order to support this initiative, and you want to the public to enjoy your work, ask the North River Commission for a full “Request for Proposal” packet, which includes:
a. Guidelines & Policies as a Prospective Sculptor
b. General Information on the Multicultural Sculpture Park and Healing Garden in Ronan Park
c. Sculptor Proposal Submission Form
d. Multicultural Sculpture Park and Healing Garden Checklist Form
Please inform the North River Commission (NRC) of your interest in participating in this unique public arts opportunity by contacting our Arts & Culture Intern:
