The Utah Public Art Program of the Division of Arts and Museums, in association with the Division of Facilities and Construction Management, has published the calls for letters of interest and qualifications from artists or artist teams interested in the WSU and DSU projects.

Budget: $410,000 - Deadline: April 10, 2020
The Weber State University Noorda Engineering Building will serve as the new home for the College of Engineering, Applied Science and Technology (EAST).  The building will house classrooms and labs for the departments of Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, the School of Computing and Sales. The Selection Committee is interested in commissioning public artwork that may reflect and compliment the engineering and science teaching and research mission of the building and those who use it.  

Budget: $340,000 - Deadline: April 24, 2020
The Dixie State University Science, Technology & Engineering Building will host classes in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Genetics, Geo Sciences, Prototyping, Thermofluids, Mechatronics and Computer Sciences, to name a few.  The science themed and rich materiality of the building design provides many opportunities for the integration of an artist’s interpretation into the architecture and site.
