New Calls for Artists

Oregon City Arts Commission – RFP Public Art- Sculpture (deadline is March 4, 2024)

The Oregon City Arts Commission seeks an artist, or artist team, to create a replacement sculpture for Oregon City’s public art collection.

Please note that the Arts Commission is not looking to emulate the former piece. Rather, artists should share their vision for new artwork that will become a mid-town Oregon City landmark.
