Calling artists and makers! 🎨

Waterloo Greenway Conservancy is seeking artists to create public art for Sir Swante Palm Park! This art call is open to artists with ties to Texas, with a special welcome for Austin artists, and anyone with a connection to the park, Palm School, or the surrounding neighborhood.

A gathering place in Austin since 1933, Palm Park has been enjoyed by generations of families and communities. We’re honoring the many heritages that have shaped this neighborhood, its rich history, and the legacy of Palm School by seeking art that reflects the story of Sir Swante Palm Park and carries its legacy forward. 🌱

Selected artists will create two entry portals, a large-scale wall (80-100 feet), and seating, all integrated into the design of the park in collaboration with MVVA.

Interested? Know someone who would be perfect? No gallery or art degree is necessary, and public art experience is a plus. Learn all about our art call and submit an application by December 7 at our link in bio. 🔗
