Opportunity

The City of Tacoma, in partnership with Metro Parks Tacoma, is seeking artists and/or artist teams who reside in Oregon or Washington State to submit qualifications for a $95,000 commission to create a permanent public artwork or series of artworks for the adjoining Water Flume Line Trail and Oak Tree Park.

The Water Flume Line Trail is a historic corridor that is being rebuilt into a six-and-a-half mile long path for bicyclists and pedestrians, connecting South Tacoma to the Thea Foss Waterway in downtown Tacoma, starting at the south end of Oak Tree Park. The selected artist or team will help increase visibility for Oak Tree Park and the Water Flume Line Trail, connect both assets to the surrounding community, and enhance the user experience.
