The city of Ann Arbor is looking for public art proposals in West Park as part of the plans to redevelop the green space on Seventh Street just west of downtown.
The City of Ann Arbor Public Art Commission and the Park Advisory Commission are looking for a Michigan artist or artist collaborators to create artwork(s) for a trio of concrete seating structures in front of the West Park band shell.
"We want to introduce artwork to our parks in general," says Amy Kuras, a landscape architect for Ann Arbor Parks & Recreation Services. "We're just trying to add some artistic flair."
The park consists of open playing fields, the historic band shell and pergola, tennis courts, basketball, pathways, picnic areas, a playground, and a baseball field near the intersection of Seventh and Miller streets. The city has budgeted up to $10,000 for the artist and their project. More information on the request for proposals
