Description
St Neots Town Council (SNTC) wish to commission an artist or creative team to create a bespoke community art project for St Neots Town Centre.
The Council is inviting Tenders from artists or a creative team that includes at least one artist to engage, devise, consult and implement on a new public art installation or installations for the centre of our town.
The process and resulting artwork must include public engagement and participation, creating a permanent unique attraction/s for our town and its growing community.
Proposals for the art and themes will be led by the work of the appointed artist/creative group, but it may recognise St Neots' history, heritage, geography, communities and/or its future.
Through sensitive development, the artwork will compliment and continue the regeneration work undertaken through the Future High Street Fund, adding vibrancy to our town.
