Description
The City of Tulsa is seeking an artist or artistic team to design, fabricate, and install a permanent mural on the I‑169 highway under‑pass along historic Route 66. The mural will cover approximately 4,360 sf of wall space and 1,052 sf of pillar surfaces, serving as a photogenic “gateway” for travelers while celebrating East‑Tulsa’s Route 66 heritage. The contract is a fixed‑price $40,000 award that includes design, materials, protective anti‑graffiti coating, and full installation through September‑November 2026.
• Scope includes conceptual design, title and description for StoryMaps integration, fabrication, site preparation, and installation with protective coatings.
• Design must avoid commercial messaging, profanity, and use durable, cleanable materials; a QR‑code will link to a digital StoryMaps guide.
• Mandatory deliverables: sealed physical submission (original print, forms, affidavit) and digital copy on USB; all work must comply with ODOT under‑pass specifications and city safety standards.
