The intent of this proposal effort is to provide an opportunity for artists and other interested persons to present ideas on how and what art can be incorporated into the building (interior and exterior), and the surrounding site. The proposals will be evaluated by the Art Selection Committee utilizing the City’s 1% for Art Funding designated for this project. All ideas and concepts will be considered. Expect that more than one art piece or idea will be funded with the available dollars.

The City of Homer reserves the right to accept or reject any or all proposals, to waive irregularities or informalities in the proposals, and to award the contract to the respondent that best meets the selection criteria based on the recommendations of the review committee.
