Artist Calls

The City of Raleigh, North Carolina, has issued an open call for artists to submit proposals for public art projects. The call is managed through the city's Office of Raleigh Arts and seeks to commission new works for various municipal sites and programs.

This initiative represents a significant public investment in local culture and provides direct economic and professional opportunities for artists. It reflects a broader trend of cities using percent-for-art programs or dedicated funding to integrate art into public infrastructure, fostering community identity and supporting the creative workforce.
