Property Appraiser Board Offices Public Art Call to Artist
DEADLINE:
The Broward Cultural Division’s Public Art & Design Program is seeking to commission one or more artists to transform new County offices located in Fort Lauderdale, FL. The selected artist(s) will design unique artwork(s) that will contribute to the identity of the facility, create a sense of place, celebrate the unique qualities of Broward County, and engage visitors to the building. A three-story office building located at 1801 NW 49th Street, Fort Lauderdale, FL will be renovated for use by the Property Appraiser’s Office, the Value Adjustment Board and any other County agencies with compatible programming space. This property is situated on 5.97 acres in central Broward County and can be accessed via Commercial Boulevard from I-95 to the east and the Florida Turnpike to the west. The Property Appraiser’s Office is open to the public and receives up to 100 visitors daily.
Interior artwork opportunities exist in the highly trafficked public reception area and will enhance standard necessities such as floors, wall treatments, functional and decorative lighting, noise mitigation, or seating. The selected artist will collaborate with the design team to determine the most appropriate location for the artwork.
Project Budget
The total budget established for this project shall not exceed $130,000. The budget must include Artist’s design fee, presentation expenses, artwork fabrication, delivery, and installation, any proposed lighting, insurance, travel, Artist’s contingency, and all applicable taxes. The budget shall also include the cost to hire a Florida licensed general contractor, Florida licensed structural and electrical engineers, and engineer(s), or others, required to prepare the permit drawings. Permit fees, and all construction costs required to complete the artwork will also be the responsibility of the artist.
