The District of Columbia Department of General Services’ Percent for Art Program invites artists to apply to 26 works of art to be permanently installed at Coolidge High School, Hyde-Addison, Kimball and Maury Elementary Schools, in Washington, D.C.  Artworks include graphic design and two-and three dimensional.  This year we have one on-line application where you can apply to any of the schools and any of the commissions therefor.  One application.  Artists tell me it takes about 30 minutes and the application is pretty easy.  The only item that requires a bit of work is placing your images into a PowerPoint/Google Slide template and then upload it.  Other that, it just requires you to complete the form fields and submit.  The deadline for completing the form is March 4.  We usually provide three months of fabrication during spring/summer with installation occurring right before the students return to school – this year July 15-August 15th for installs.  Please email sandy.bellamy@dc.gov.  We look forward to seeing your portfolios and, if you are selected, seeing your next masterpiece!   Note:  any of the links below will access ALL of the schools and commissions.
