Get matched →The Orange County Public Art Review Board seeks applications from sculpture artists or artist teams to create artwork for the Barber Park Recreation Center in southeast Orlando. The new facility will serve the multigenerational community with a gymnasium, fitness center, and multipurpose activity rooms, alongside existing playgrounds, dog park, skatepark, and outdoor hockey rink on Lake George's shores.
Proposed artwork should create a dynamic environment that encourages interaction and playfulness. Sculptures must be freestanding and not climbable. Design possibilities include canopies that play with light, shade structures with seating, sensory elements featuring varied textures, and kinetic components. Two-dimensional art should incorporate vibrant colors and themes connecting to the community space. Sculpture lighting will be provided; flag poles and landscaping will be adjusted to sculpture placement.

A selection panel consisting of project manager, stakeholders, and art professionals will review artists' qualifications based on artistic excellence, professional experience, and compatibility with the facility environment and county values. Several artists will be selected to provide site-specific proposals and receive the $300 stipend. Final selection occurs after proposal review. The Orange County Public Coordinator serves as non-voting Chair. The panel reserves the right to reject any applications or modify the process.
