In June the final segment of the Buck O’Neil Bridge faced demolition. Now, the city is focused on its replacement. As a part of that, they’re searching for artists.
Funded by the Art in the Loop project, the call for artists asks for a semi-permament mural to be created at the site of the new Buck O’Neil Bridge.
The mural should pay homage to:
- History of the Riverfront area and its historic bridges
- Connections to the community
- Present day multicultural community
- The bridge’s namesake, Buck O’Neil
Selected artists will receive funds to bridge their vision from paper to reality. Applications close Thursday, Aug. 22.
