PROS 2020-12 - RFQ Bus Shelter Public Art

The Town of Superior, Colorado and the Superior Cultural Arts and Public Spaces (CAPS) Advisory Committee are seeking artists interested in transforming bus shelters with unique works of art inspired by the theme, “Superior Today”. The selected artist will receive a design fee for conceptualizing and designing the artwork with input and approval from the CAPS Advisory Committee. There are four bus shelters available for this project all located along Rock Creek Parkway in the center of Superior.

Public Art Project in Brief
The CAPS Advisory Committee envisions a series of artworks that will bring the bus shelters to life by telling stories of Superior today. The Committee encourages original designs that present a contemporary feel. The designs will be printed on vinyl and installed by a local vendor. The designs can be created in any medium from graphic design, photography, mixed media and painting, etc. The chosen artists will be responsible for producing the design in the chosen medium that can be scaled up to the size of the bus shelter, and providing a high-resolution digital file of the design to be given to a vendor for printing. The technical details are to be determined with the selected artist. The Town will retain ownership of the original artwork and may choose to display it in public.
