Description
This contract concerns the commissioning, fabrication, and installation of a permanent large‑scale sculptural artwork in the central stair “art zone” of the new Morrow County Courthouse in Oregon. The County allocated a total budget of $150,000, which includes design, materials, fabrication, installation, insurance, and a $1,750 design‑proposal stipend for finalists. Eligibility is limited to Oregon‑based professional artists, with a strong encouragement for applicants from underserved communities. The procurement process began with an open RFQ, a submission deadline of June 15 2026, and culminated in an intent‑to‑award notice on September 15 2026 naming Christopher Belluschi as the selected artist. The artwork must meet structural (≤ 500 lb load, ≥ 7‑ft clear height), lighting, durability, and sight‑line requirements, and be completed by June 30 2027.
