The Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA) is inviting artists and artist teams to submit their qualifications to be considered for one or more permanent art commissions at a new park in Sun Valley, located at 11957 Allegheny St., Los Angeles, CA 91352, in the City’s 6th Council District, Councilmember President Nury Martinez.

The new family-friendly park will include splash pads, playgrounds, fitness equipment, drinking fountains, restrooms, walking path, picnic areas, and shade trees.

There are two public art opportunities at the park. The first opportunity is to create a public artwork that honors and acknowledges the successful efforts of local women who have led the way for changes and improvements within the community. The second opportunity is to create an artistically designed decorative gate to signify a welcoming entrance to the new Allegheny Park. Both artworks should reflect the identity of the community.

This public art opportunity is administered by DCA, in compliance with the City’s Public Percent for Art Program. Funding for the project is through a Proposition 68 grant.
