Call for Artists: Port Everglades – Cruise Terminal 29 Interior
In partnership with Port Everglades, Broward Cultural Division’s Public Art & Design Program is seeking to commission one artist or artist team to design and install artwork that enhances interior spaces within Cruise Terminal 29, Port Everglades, located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The prominent location presents an opportunity for highly visible and vibrant artwork that contributes to Port Everglades’ unique identity.
Port Everglades is an economic powerhouse for Broward County and one of the most diverse seaports in the United States. Located in the heart of Greater Fort Lauderdale and the City of Hollywood, Port Everglades has been one of the busiest cruise ports in the world. It is a leading container port in Florida and among the most active cargo ports in the United States, and is South Florida’s main seaport for receiving petroleum products including gasoline and jet fuel. A foreign-trade zone and available office space inside the Port’s secure area make Port Everglades a highly desirable business center for world trade. The Port Everglades Department is a self-supporting Enterprise Fund of Broward County government and does not rely on local tax dollars for operations or capital improvements. There are 13,127 people who work for companies that provide direct services to Port Everglades.
Site Description and Design Parameters
The artwork may be hand painted directly onto walls adjacent to the staircase/escalator that takes passengers to and from the second-floor embarkation room or may be hung on the walls. Additional enhancements may be physically adhered to the walls. Artistic components requiring engineering and mechanical fasteners would not be appropriate. Materials should be able to withstand humid environments.
Artist Services
The selected artist will be required to enter into an agreement with the County, visit the site, and install the artwork.
Art Project Budget
The total budget established for this project will not exceed $3,000. The budget must include Artist’s design fee, any required ladders, lifts or scaffolding, artwork materials, installation, insurance, travel, Artist’s contingency, and all applicable taxes.
Artist Eligibility
This Call to Artists is open to professional artists eighteen years of age or older, residing in Florida who have not been previously selected for a Broward County public art commission in the past 10 years. Artists with all levels of experience are encouraged to apply.
The Broward Cultural Council understands that Broward County’s cultural vibrancy is due to its diversity. As such, Broward Cultural Council acknowledges that all cultures are vital to the arts and the promotion of a culturally democratic world.
Therefore, the Broward Cultural Council supports the development, expression, and preservation of art and culture of all communities, groups and individuals. The Council aims to ensure that diverse populations have opportunities to appreciate and value the arts and to participate.
Application Process
The application process requires artists to review and accept the terms of the Broward County Standard Agreement before applying to the Call to Artists. Please refer to the Agreement:

The Broward Cultural Division manages the application process. An Artist Selection Panel (Panel) will review the applications. The Panel includes a member of the Public Art & Design Committee, arts professionals, an agency representative, and a community representative. The Panel reviews the application and shortlists artists based on the excellence of previous work, as demonstrated by the visuals and other submission materials. The Panel will also consider the versatility and appropriateness of the media in which the applicant has demonstrated proficiency, as it relates to the scope of this project.

Call to Artists: Port Everglades Road Enhancement
Site Description
Chain link fences and Jersey Barriers are essential safety and security features used throughout Port Everglades. Long runs of fence, averaging seven feet in height, some topped with barbed wire, surround parking lots, cargo storage areas and cruise terminals. Chain link fences are installed along vehicular roadways and canals, and atop concrete road barriers (Jersey Barriers). Multiple locations are available for the artwork and the focus will be on the most visible and highly trafficked areas throughout the Port. Five or more locations will be available for artwork and shortlisted artists will be invited to tour the site.
Artist Selection
One or more applicants will be shortlisted by the Artist Selection Panel (Panel). Each artist will be invited to tour Port Everglades with the project team and will be assigned a location that includes a fence, or a Jersey Barrier, or a Jersey Barrier topped with a fence, and a budget. The shortlisted artist(s) will have approximately one month to prepare a conceptual design proposal for review by the Panel. Each shortlisted artist or team of artists will be paid an honorarium of $500 for the site visit and to develop the conceptual design proposal.
Shortlisted artists must submit one (1) digital copy (PC compatible media) of their full presentation five (5) business days prior to presentation to the Panel. Shortlisted artists may present their design proposal to the Panel via videoconference. Shortlisted artists’ proposals must include a written narrative, estimated project budget, and visual materials necessary to convey the proposed concept or approach. Proposals, including models/maquettes, become property of Broward County and will not be returned.
Design Parameters
Colors and themes of the artwork may reflect the native animals, plants, or flowers of the Florida Everglades. Multiple artwork locations may function as a cohesive unit or as individual, stand-alone artworks. Materials should be salt and sun tolerant and able to withstand the elements common to areas along roadways and in close proximity to salt water. Artists wishing to paint Jersey Barriers will be required to use a primer and a protective clear coat for protection from ultraviolet rays. Due to public safety concerns, the artwork will not invite public interaction or present a photo opportunity which requires cars to stop or pedestrians to cross roadways. Florida is subject to high winds and fences are designed to withstand winds of up to 152 miles per hour. The artwork must be installed in in such a way as to withstand a wind event.
Artists Services
Artists selected for this project will be required to provide the following services:
- Enter into County’s Commissioned Artwork Agreement (Attached – please read before responding to this Call to Artists)
- Design development of approved conceptual design ensuring that no Port structures are damaged by installation of the artwork
- Wind Load assessment of the selected artwork by a Florida licensed structural engineer
- Obtain permits, as required
- Installation of the artwork
The total budget established for this project will not exceed $25,000 and may be divided between one or more artists or artist teams. The budget must include artist’s design fee, presentation expenses, insurance, permits, engineering as needed, artwork installation, professional conservation review of proposed materials upon request, site visits, coordination meetings, artist’s contingency, and all applicable taxes.
Artist Eligibility
This Call to Artists is open to professional artists eighteen years of age or older, residing in Florida and who have not been previously selected for a Broward County public art commission in the past 10 years.
