Call For Artist Design Services – SBCTA

Call for art!

The San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) is seeking local artists and/or artist teams to design and execute original artwork to be installed in stations along the new West Valley Connector Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) line operated by Omnitrans. Artists will be designing artwork for perforated panels at the 27 shelters along the corridor and artwork for 33 utility boxes. The aim of the public art project is to integrate into the current station design while incorporating art components to provide a distinct look related to communities along the line.

The project team will have an ad-hoc Artist Selection Committee (ASC) to review all artist qualifications. Six artists will be chosen and paid a design honorarium of $1,500 to develop two black-and-white preliminary design concepts for the project that will be reviewed by the ASC. The ASC will select three finalists who will be paid $20,000 to revise and prepare final design.

Learn more about the CaFe submission system and ask questions about the call for art submission requirements on November 8th.
