Hello again!

Are there programs that have paired an emerging/visual artist with an established public art artist for a public art opportunity?

We are researching models for an upcoming opportunity in SLC with a budget of $188,000 and hoping you all can share your experiences/insights with apprenticeship programs/or professional development programs that help emerging/visual artists make the leap to public art.

Specific questions we are wondering:

- How was the commission split?

- Was it an apprenticeship model with a smaller stipend given to the emerging artist or was it a visual artist/established public art team with a split commission?

- Does the selected established public art artist choose the emerging/visual artist and apply together or do they select that person after they have been selected?

Lot of questions, thanks for your help in advance!

Thank you,

Kat
