Description

Apply now for the PAiD Artist Council!

PAiD: Public Artists in Development is a visionary program from the LA County Department of Arts & Culture, funded by the Mellon Foundation, with development and delivery by Dyson & Womack. It's a groundbreaking initiative that's set to reshape the future of public art in our community.

This opportunity is open to artists living in LA County who are interested in considering how public art policies and processes impact access, equity, and sustainability. We encourage artists working in diverse media and across all career levels to apply, including those who have historically been underrepresented in the public art field.

The Artist Council is an eight-member group of artists selected to create temporary public art projects. This group will be a platform for artist-led strategies and meaningful discussions about LA County Arts and Culture's public art, equity, and inclusion policies and procedures. Selected artists will participate in an 8 to 10 month long, two-part program of dialogue and art creation. Dyson & Womack, along with other arts and culture leaders, will work with the Artist Council to make recommendations on policies and procedures and develop temporary public art projects.

We strongly encourage applicants to review all the materials and supporting
documents available before responding to this RFQ. Applications must be submitted electronically through the online submission platform at www.dysonwomack.com/paid by November 17th, 2023, at 11:59 PM (PST).
