Art for Public Plazas

The Department of Cultural Affairs is looking for a few good artists to improve the city’s streetscape. The agency has issued a Request for Qualifications for artists interested in creating work for six Department of Transportation-controlled plazas around town. Two of these—Myrtle between Grand and Emerson in Clinton Hill (at right) and Humboldt between Moore and Varet in East Williamsburg—are in Brooklyn; the budget for each site is $100,000. The deadline for submission is February 22. Good luck!
