This commission, funded at an estimated $275,000 to $400,000, represents 0.5% of the facility’s construction cost and will support a critical infrastructure project aimed at enhancing border security, improving operational efficiency for Customs and Border Protection, and strengthening cross-border trade coordination with Saint-Augustin-de-Woburn, Quebec.

The selected artist will be expected to collaborate closely with the lead architect, conduct site visits, develop and refine conceptual designs, oversee fabrication, ensure proper installation, provide detailed maintenance plans, and participate in conservation reviews. In alignment with Executive Order 13934, preference will be given to artworks that reflect historically significant Americans, pivotal national events, or foundational American ideals.
