About
Overview
Bernalillo County invites artists, artist teams, and community-based creative practitioners to submit qualifications for a community participatory art project that will help shape the North Valley Area Plan Update. We are seeking artists who believe that creative engagement can strengthen community voice, build connections, and make planning more inclusive and accessible. The selected artist will collaborate with residents, businesses, community organizations, and the planning team to design and facilitate artistic activities that encourage meaningful participation during a workshop or other events throughout the planning process.
Project Goals
The engagement activities aim to foster a sense of belonging for all community members, build positive relationships, create a shared community vision for the future of North Valley, cultivate new community leaders including from underrepresented groups, and create opportunities for joy.
Artistic Methods
The selected artist will create opportunities for community members to express their ideas through creative methods that may include interactive art installations, community workshops, story collection and oral histories, collaborative murals or temporary public art, creative mapping, photography/audio/video projects, performances or cultural events, pop-up engagement activities, and other innovative participatory approaches. The team is interested in visual art-making as well as other artistic mediums such as theater, poetry, movement and dance, and song.
