OVERVIEW
The Cultural Center Crosswalks Project will be located at SE 1st Ave. connecting City Hall to the Cultural Center. The artistic scope of work is to develop and install three crosswalk designs. This is a community engagement project and the selected artist(s) will work with residents/volunteers to install the artwork. The artwork lifespan of the project is predicted to be five years. This project is part of the NEA Grant awarded to the City in 2017.
THEME & REQUIREMENTS
This is a community engagement project and the selected artist(s) will work with residents/volunteers to install the artwork. The purpose of this project is to not only beautify the streets and connect City Hall and the Cultural Center, but also to strengthen ties within the community and give them a sense of pride and ownership to the finished artwork.
The crosswalk designs should be an abstract, repeating pattern that is easily translated into a stencil. The shapes must be solid colors, no gradients. The Crosswalks should convey a sense of place and utilize easy design elements with the purpose of refreshing the colors in the future, if need be. Designs should be simple and beautiful. Specific paint must be used. Since this is an outdoor floor mural, the artist must use paint that can stand up to not only weather wear and tear but car traffic as well.
This project is functional public art and will serve the purpose of providing a safe and beautiful street enhancement.
PROJECT LOCATION
The location for the crosswalks will be on SE 1st Ave. connecting City Hall and the Cultural Arts Center. There will be three crosswalks in total: one larger crosswalk (43’ by 35’) in between two smaller crosswalks (68’ x 10 ‘ and 32.5’ by 10’).

PERMITS
It shall be the artist’s responsibility, where applicable, to obtain all necessary permits prior to fabrication and installation. The artist will ensure that the design will be code compliant and can stand up to South Florida weather conditions.
