The amount of money set aside for artists is $5 million and two of the five
million has already been awarded to two artist back east… many local artists
were not happy about that.
Also, the call for local artists to submit qualifications to be included in
the “Airport Art Program” has been extended. The original due date to
submit and be considered was August 4th… unfortunately not many local
artist have stepped up to this opportunity, so they have now extended the
due date to September 15th. All artists would have the opportunity to have
their art reviewed and considered for a public installation at the new
airport terminal. I submitted some of my photos and hope to make the cut… if
you know anybody who loves being creative, encourage them to enter.
