Mural Design and Artistic Concept DevelopmentThe contract seeks the development of a narrative mural concept that captures the cultural and historical essence of Vernon, Connecticut, through original artistic work including preliminary sketches, detailed color studies, and a finalized design ready for approval. The project, titled Mural Design and Artistic Concept Development, is structured as a subcontract under NAICS code 711510, indicating it falls within the artistic services sector focused on creative production. All deliverables must align with the town’s identity, requiring the artist to research and interpret local heritage, community values, and significant events to inform a compelling visual story.

The contract is managed by the Connecticut Department of Administrative Services Procurement division through their CTSource bidding portal, though no specific office address or point of contact details are provided. The place of performance is tied to Vernon, CT, requiring the artist to engage meaningfully with the local context, even if physical execution of the mural is not included in this phase. All submitted materials are expected to reflect professional quality, originality, and cultural sensitivity, with the ultimate goal of producing an approved concept that could serve as the foundation for future mural installation.

Call for Artist Mural ProjectThe Town of Vernon, Connecticut, is soliciting qualified artists or artist teams to design and install a large-scale narrative mural at 1 Prospect Street in Rockville, a historic mill town turned Cultural District, under the theme “Threads of Community.” The project aims to create a visually compelling welcome sign that reflects the area’s rich industrial heritage, ongoing revitalization, and inclusive identity, engaging both residents and visitors. Artists must submit a single merged PDF containing a resume (max 2 pages), up to five digital images of prior work (max 1 MB each), conceptual sketches, a statement of intent (max 2 single-spaced pages), a detailed budget, and at least two professional references. The mural must be completed and installed by December 2026, with key milestones including proposal submission by July 15, 2026, finalist selection by July 31, interviews in August, and final design approval by August 31. The total project budget is fixed at $17,000, covering all artist fees, materials, insurance, and installation costs, with no option for additional funding. Evaluation is based on a point-driven system prioritizing thematic alignment and artistic quality with 30 points, followed by site-specific relevance and community impact with 20 points, and adherence to requirements, professionalism, timelines, and presentation with 10 points. A smaller 5-point category considers the artist’s local connection and safety of the design. While the solicitation encourages participation from minority, women, and small business enterprises, no formal certifications are required, nor are Unique Entity IDs or CAGE codes needed. Only finalists receiving a $200 stipend must submit a W-9 form for tax purposes. Proposals must be submitted exclusively via email to the project lead, Annie Geitner, by the deadline, with no physical submissions accepted. Ownership of the mural and all related materials transfers fully to the Cornerstone Foundation upon completion. The Town of Vernon retains authority over final selection and acceptance at the installation site, with no formal contracting officer or technical representative assigned, and no federal acquisition regulations or standardized clauses incorporated into the process.

Applicants must submit a comprehensive proposal not exceeding seven pages, supported by mandatory standardized forms including SF-424, SF-424A, SF-424B, the Applicant Organization Information Survey, and a detailed line-item budget using the provided templates, all submitted via Grants.gov or the U.S. Embassy Canada website. Awards are expected to range between $100,000 and $200,000, with a project performance period of 24 months or less. Eligible applicants must maintain an active Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) through SAM.gov, and organizations may submit only one proposal; multiple submissions will disqualify all proposals from that entity.

Award recipients must adhere to strict federal compliance requirements including 2 CFR parts 200, 25, 170, 175, 182, and 183, as well as Department of State branding standards and Freedom 250 logo inclusion in all program materials.
