Public Art Jury

The public is invited to view the jury process for the Music Out Loud Public Art Project.

Project details: The City of Olympia is seeking to commission exterior artwork to define three sidewalk locations (approximately 4 x 10 feet) in downtown Olympia to recognize three Olympia music legends, now deceased.  The music nodes will be stand-alone installations that host summer acoustic performances.  Selected artists will design an image to be fabricated in mosaic, representing the life and work of a local music legacy.  Fabrication and installation will be arranged by the City.  Six semi-finalists will be selected based on previous work by a jury composed of members of the Olympia Arts Commission. Presentation of the six designs and Arts Commission recommendation of the final three will go to City Council on August 29, 2017.
