The City of Kokomo invites you to participate in our 2021-2023 juried, on-loan, outdoor, sculpture exhibit in downtown Kokomo, Indiana.  Selected artists must be willing to enter into a 2 year Art Loan Agreement with the Greater Kokomo Economic Development Alliance and will be awarded an honorarium of $2000 per piece. Kokomo Indiana is located in north central Indiana just 45 minutes from Indianapolis with a vibrant and growing arts community.  The sculptures will be installed on concrete sculpture platforms or on grassy areas in beautiful downtown Kokomo along the Kokomo Industrial Heritage trail and the Walk of Excellence.  This exhibit will be on display from April 2021 through March 2023.

Eligibility: Artists must own the rights to the artwork, which must be available for the duration of the two-year exhibition period.  Only completed artwork will be considered. Artwork must be ready to set on 8’ x 8’ cement pads.  The installation method for each sculpture should be welded tabs or similar easy-install method.  The exhibit is outdoors and open to the public, and because of this, certain requirements must be met in order for a sculpture to be considered for display.  Fragile or dangerous works will not be accepted.  Artwork must be available for the duration of the two-year contract, and must be constructed of durable materials that will withstand year-round Indiana weather.

Transportation: Selected artists are responsible for transportation of the artwork to and from the installation site.  The artwork must be delivered as exhibition-ready.  The Greater Kokomo Economic Development Alliance with the City of Kokomo will supervise installation of the work, and will insure the artwork for the duration of the exhibit.

Submission Details:  Artists may submit up to three sculptures for consideration, but each submission will be considered separately.  Each submission must include the following:
·         A bio/resume describing your experience and exhibition history.
·         Three images of the work (front, back and one detail).
·         Dimensions (HxWxD) for each submission (For a sculpture to sit on a base it must be no larger at its base than the  8’ x 8’ concrete platform. There are options for sculptures to rest on the ground if appropriate and thus, those sculptures may exceed 8’ x8’ at the base.)
·         Stated insurance value for each work.
·         Each sculpture entry must be submitted individually.
