Woodland Park Legacy Fountain Public Art Request

February 21, 2025 Kelli Fereday

Calling all Artists! The Friends of Woodland Park (FWP) is pleased to offer a grant of $2,500 to beautify a remnant piece of infrastructure—the 11-foot concrete bowl left from a century-old fountain!

Friends of Woodland Park seeks a mosaic (or other sculpture) artist to create a new piece of art using that bowl as its base.  Proposals should be submitted by 11:59 PM April 20th. For more info and to apply, click here!

As necessary, FWP members can also help secure materials (e.g., ceramics and stoneware collected from the neighborhood) Note that HPARD has already approved this process (and the specifications in this RFP), and will only require final sign-off on the approved design to ensure it is not offensive or problematic.
