Summary

A distinctive opportunity is available for artists and creative practitioners to present temporary installations within a unique public space in Southern California. This initiative focuses on transforming a historic structure into a venue for contemporary art, aiming to enrich the community's cultural landscape. The venue is a 12-foot cube with transparent walls, allowing for 360-degree visibility of the artwork. Equipped with lighting and electrical outlets, it offers flexibility for various types of installations. Selected artists receive a stipend to support both the creation and installation of their work, with a total maximum support of $2,500. Eligibility extends to individual artists, art organizations, and educational institutions, with a preference for those based in the local or regional area. The program encourages submissions that are site-specific and engage the community in meaningful ways. 


Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, with reviews conducted annually. This schedule allows artists ample time to develop thoughtful proposals that align with the program's objectives. 

This initiative is part of a broader effort to integrate art into public spaces, enhancing community engagement and cultural appreciation. By repurposing a historical structure as an art venue, the program bridges the past and present, fostering a dynamic dialogue between artists and the public.


For those interested in contributing to the cultural fabric of the community through innovative installations, this opportunity offers a platform to bring creative visions to life in a setting that is both accessible and historically significant.
