The City of Ft Collins seeks visual artists as design consultants for city construction
The City of Fort Collins is seeking visual artists to serve as Design Consultants for city construction
projects. The Art in Public Places Program is creating a list of approved artists who can work as
Design Consultants for city projects that may or may not have an independent art budget. Design
consultants selected from the resource list will work with a project team, architects, engineers, and
managers to designate opportunities for art within the project or within a separate art budget. This
approach requires good collaboration skills, creativity, flexibility, as well as an open mind. The
department, design team, and APP Board will determine the extent of the design consultants
involvement in a project. The design consultant will be paid a fee of $50 an hour for the design
phase, or will be commissioned to create a piece of artwork for the site. The APP program will use
this list of artists for approximately two years. Acceptance onto this list will not exclude the artist
from submitting and being selected for other City of Fort Collins Art in Public Places Projects.
