The rosters will be one of the means of selecting artists to develop permanent, free-standing or site-integrated artwork projects in a variety of sizes and complexities. The 2014-2015 roster will replace any previous rosters. Previously selected roster artists are encouraged to apply. Established Artist Roster Eligibility: Open to experienced professional artists residing in the United States. Applicants must have successfully completed a minimum of two permanent or temporary, site-specific public art commissions with budgets of a least $15,000 per project.
