Call for Artists for an Art and Heritage Discovery Trail

The City of Bismarck is seeking artists to provide digital local literary art, visual art, performance art, or other creative media to be shared via QR codes on semi-permanent signs throughout Bismarck, ND. Twenty art pieces will be shared digitally via the QR codes, and one visual artwork will be used as the background for all the signs. The project aims to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States and celebrate the past 250 years of North Dakota's people, places, innovations, and/or achievements contributing to the nation's story. • The project is open to artists or groups of artists that are residents of Bismarck, employed in Bismarck, or any other North Dakota artist. • Submissions by novice and professional artists will be accepted. • Previous experience working on public art projects is not necessary. • The City of Bismarck was awarded funding from the ND250 Community Initiatives Grant Fund to create an Art and Heritage Discovery Trail. • The project will support the implementation of the City's Arts and Culture Plan and Historic Preservation Plan.
