The deadline to submit qualifications for this opportunity is Friday, September 21 at 11:00 AM EST.

The City of Knoxville’s Public Arts Committee invites artists and artist teams to submit a statement of qualifications for a mural or series of murals to be located on the eastern wall of the Market Square Garage, facing the alley located between Wall Avenue and Union Avenue, in the heart of downtown Knoxville. The wall is divided into twenty-four rectangular panels of varying sizes. Artists may submit qualifications for the entire site or one or more panels comprising the site. Up to fifteen artists or artist teams will be selected to submit proposals for the site. If multiple artists are selected for the site, the selected artists will be required to coordinate placement of their proposals.

The total project budget for the entire site is $35/square foot, for a total of $151,000.

More details about the project and how to submit qualifications is available on the City of Knoxville’s Purchasing Department website, viewed here: https://vrapp.vendorregistry.com/Bids/View/Bid/3d5a63aa-915f-4663-8cff-4cf703c1e3b1
