Compassionate St. Augustine is an organization that helped obtain a “compassionate city” designation for St. Augustine.  As part of that effort, they created a public art project with Obelisks as the artwork and placed 25 pieces in public and private spaces.

Subject: non-traditional historic/commemorative public art

 

We’d love to see examples of non-traditional sculptures or public art concepts that commemorate people or foundational stories for a city/community. (we’d like to initiate a project that does not end up as a traditional bronze sculpture). We’d also welcome examples of RFPs that generated creative submissions for this kind of project.

 

Thanks so much in advance!

Fiona
