The City of San Jose (CA) is seeking experienced artists, or artist teams (“Artists”), to submit Statements of Qualifications for a Pre-Qualified Public Artist Roster (“Roster”). The purpose of the Roster is to serve as a resource for future public art selection panels, streamlining the artist selection process for a range of upcoming public art projects, primarily those associated with the construction of new civic buildings and facilities, parks, environmental services, transportation, and streetscape improvement projects throughout San José. Some projects may also offer opportunities for Artists to work as part of a design team along with the project architect/designer. The Roster may be used either in combination with an open call or invitational or as the sole resource for identifying appropriate artists/teams for a project.

Budgets for the City’s upcoming permanent public art projects are expected to range from $15,000 - $320,000.
