2009 DESIGN CONSULTANT RESOURCE LIST
DEADLINE: JUNE 5, 2009
PROJECT
The City of Fort Collins is seeking visual artists to serve as Design Consultants for city construction projects. The Art in Public Places
Program is creating a list of approved artists who can work as Design Consultants for city projects that may or may not have an independent
art budget. Design consultants selected from the resource list will work with a project team, architects, engineers, and managers to designate
opportunities for art within the project or within a separate art budget. This approach requires good collaboration skills, creativity, flexibility,
as well as an open mind. The department, design team, and APP Board will determine the extent of the design consultant's involvement in a
project. The design consultant will be paid a fee of $50 an hour for the design phase, or will be commissioned to create a piece of artwork
for the site. The APP program will use this list of artists for approximately two years. Acceptance onto this list will not exclude the artist
from submitting and being selected for other City of Fort Collins' Art in Public Places Projects.
ELIGIBILITY
This project is open artists within a 250 mile distance from the City of Fort Collins, CO. The artist must be willing to work with the selected
project team.
