This workshop will provide practical advice on how to navigate public art competitions, and what happens after you are successful. How does the application process usually work? Calls for submissions often talk about community consultation—what does that mean? What are some of the considerations regarding materials and installation? Can you subcontract? Join us for two perspectives on public art that will help you figure out if it is a good fit for you and your practice.
Free, everyone welcome! Go to Creative Manitoba's website to register.
