Arts October! 2014

It’s almost time for Arts October! An opportunity for visual artists to connect with the public as Artists in Action in the City Hall and Spartan Recreation Center lobbies.

And, it’s an opportunity for staff and the public to stop by, watch an artist working and ask a question or two about materials and process. Let us know if you are interested in painting or working on another art medium for one or more days in City Hall’s two-story, light-filled lobby or the busy but spacious lobby at Spartan Rec.

Each selected artist will set up a self-contained “studio” space with easel or small table to create work. A floor covering to protect the polished concrete surface is required. Oils or other toxic materials are not allowed.

Ros Bird says, "If you have an idea for a simple interactive art project to accompany your own art creating, please let us know. This is not required but is always interesting. We will contact you for more details if the idea seems feasible in our spaces."

For more information about this Shoreline project contact Ros Bird, Public Art Coordinator or find the details on the City’s website.

Application deadline: September 15, 2014.
