Miller Community Center Solar Microgrid Project<https://www.seattle.gov/arts/opportunities/current-calls-and-funding> The Office of Arts & Culture (ARTS), in partnership with Seattle City Light (SCL) and Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) is seeking an artist/artist team to develop an interior permanent site-specific artwork as part of a solar microgrid project at the Miller Community Center in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood. The artist(s) will meaningfully engage with the users of the Miller Community Center as part of the design process and work with SCL staff to gain a working knowledge of Seattle City Light's sustainability goals. The Solar Microgrid project is an innovative new technology that will provide power to the community center in emergencies events such as windstorms or unplanned power outages. The solar panels will be installed on the roof, and a small exterior area surrounded by a fence will house the batteries and micro-controllers. The commissioned artwork will be inside the community center and relate in some way to the solar microgrid project or SCL goals for solar sustainability as well as reflect the patrons and users of the Miller Community Center. The artwork should be wall mounted and site-specific to this project. 3D elements as part of the installation are desired (versus a 2D mural approach). Eligibility This call is open to emerging and established artists residing in Washington, Oregon, Idaho. ARTS encourages diversity in its collection. Artists whose work is well represented in the city's collection are eligible to apply, but the artist selection panel will consider artistic diversity as one factor in the selection process. Students are not eligible to apply. Please see the full call on CaFÉ<https://artist.callforentry.org/festivals_unique_info.php?ID=6811>. Budget The selected artist will receive a commission of $46,000, inclusive of all fees including Washington State Sales and Use Tax (10.1%). Contracting will be done in two phases: outreach, design and engineering for $7,000 and fabrication and installation for $39,000. Deadline Wednesday, March 11, 2020 at 10:59 pm Pacific.
