Richmond's Public Art Program is looking for artists to showcase on No. 3 Road art columns from 2023 to 2024.
The artwork will be displayed on the columns through two exhibitions, one from Feb. 1 to Jul. 31, 2023 and one from Aug. 1, 2023 to Jan. 31, 2024.
Six artists will be commissioned, each receiving a fee of $1,500 for four print-ready digital artwork files. The city will bear the costs of printing and installation.

The submission must include a completed information form, a 300 words maximum artwork statement, four low-resolution digital images of proposed artworks and a two pages maximum CV. Artists will be selected by a three-person panel consisting of professional artists, art professionals and community members.
