Prequalified Public Art List

City of San Antonio Public Art Projects are created by a team of individuals which include:

• Visual artists
• Design professionals
• Fabricators
• Installation experts
• Marketing professionals

To be considered for future public art projects, you must first apply and receive approval for the Prequalified Public Art List.

The Department opens applications for the Prequalified Public Art List each year. Visual artists and support service providers are encouraged to apply.

Practicing professional visual artists are eligible to apply as an individual or as part of an artist group. Arts agencies and/or nonprofit organizations who focus on visual arts are eligible to apply.

NOTE: Performing artists should not apply for the prequalified list unless they also create visual art due to funding guidelines.

Applicants are assessed by a panel of art experts who evaluate applications based on artistic merit and experience.

If approved for the Prequalified Public Art List, you are eligible for public art projects. This lasts for three years from the Council's approval date.

NOTE:  Being on the Prequalified Public Art List does not guarantee work. Staff will contact you for future project opportunities that may arise.

If you are interested in applying to be an evaluating panelist, the Department will host a Call for Public Art Panelists: Evaluating the Prequalified Public Art List in advance of the Prequalified Public Art List application.
