A call for public art projects is going out in Lexington. Citizens are invited to submit proposals for projects to be created on city property.
Lexington’s Public Arts Commission established the new collaborative program. It includes a neighborhood stories component to encourage the development of public arts projects that will identify local points of pride, history, and culture.
The Commission will accept applications throughout the year. They may be submitted by Fayette County artists, neighborhood associations, city departments, for-profit and non-profit businesses, and community groups.
Funding for projects completed through the Collaborative Program is provided by the city’s Percent for Art Fund.
