City Mark Capital Art Project

Summary: The City Mark Project is intended to give Rochester a new permanent physical Artwork that recognizes and celebrates the City Mark design. The Artwork should be unique, prominent and iconic, and should celebrate the “City Mark,” the five-petaled symbol of Rochester’s “Flour City” past and “Flower City” present that has become a sign of community pride.   The primary focal point for the Artwork is the center point of the Sister Cities Bridge over the Genesee River, where three bridge segments intersect. Potential secondary locations are located to the east and west of the bridge. The contract resulting from this RFQ process will include design, fabrication, transport, and installation of this proposed work of public art. Budget: The budget for the Project shall not exceed $590,000. This sum is inclusive of all costs associated with the project, including artist fees, engineering fees, insurance, identification signage, lighting, fabrication, site preparation, site restoration, transport, travel, installation, and other project related expenses. Up to three artists will be selected as finalists, and will receive a stipend in the amount of $1,500 to prepare a conceptual design for the Project. Call Deadline: 4:00 p.m., Thursday, August 8, 2024 How to Apply: Submit proposal by mail. See RFQ for more details.
