Consultation has concluded
Georges River Council is seeking Expressions of Interest from professional artists/teams of artists for temporary hoarding installations. The aim of the project is to create inspiring temporary public art supporting community identity and to increase the cultural vibrancy of the Georges River area. Funds up to $6,000 are available for each successful proposal.
The first implementation of the public art hoarding project will take place at Hurstville Plaza, which officially opened in April 2019. This space provides the community with an engaging place to relax and socialise. The plaza has been designed as a multi-use space for the community with public seating, public amenities and smart station connectivity. The Plaza plays a key role in helping to transform Hurstville CBD to create an inviting and vibrant destination, celebrated by our community.
The artwork should respond to Georges River Council’s inclusive and diverse community and reflect Hurstville as the “heart of the city”. A range of media and styles will be considered, however chosen designs will need to be executed in situ.
Artists will be expected to complete the works between the hours of 10.00am and 6.00pm, in the period of Monday 10 June – Sunday 23 June 2019. The completion of artworks in situ will coincide with Council’s Pride Month celebrations in the Plaza, celebrating our diverse community.
