Call for Artists Coming Soon





Good Morning!

The City of Mountain View is thrilled to announce we are preparing two calls for artists to be released in the coming months. 

*1) Bollard Beautification Project*

Bollards Painted Downtown

The interim Castro Street Pedestrian Mall includes several City-led improvements to beautify the streetscape and contribute to placemaking in Downtown. The City is preparing to put out a call for artists to transform safety bollards into public art.

Thirty-two spherical, concrete bollards have been installed at a few intersections that cross Castro Street to protect the pedestrian walkway, social zones and outdoor patio areas from vehicles. Twenty bollards will be painted a solid color to match the central walkway design that will be installed later this year. The remaining 12 bollards will be used as canvases for local artists.

The City is looking to select six artists, each responsible for developing art on two bollards. Interested artists are invited to prepare a proposal including a concept featuring two bollards accompanied by a color sketch or photo, a title, a detailed description, an estimate of material costs and any specific requirements. 

The Bollard Beautification call is anticipated for release in early June 2024. Selected artists will receive a stipend and must be available to install their art during the summer 2024. 



*2) Shoreline Boathouse Expansion (CIP Project 20-39)*

The City of Mountain View Visual Arts Committee (VAC) will be seeking an artist or artist team to create the design and commission public artwork for the Shoreline Boathouse Expansion Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project 20-39.  The Shoreline Sailing Lake boating facility, Boathouse, is located at 3160 N. Shoreline Blvd, and is leased to Silicon Shores, Inc. who operates the facilities, including the Shoreline Lake American Bistro.

The upcoming call for artists is a result of an upgrade and expansion project to the more than 25-year-old building. The VAC will discuss the project at their meeting on June 12, 2024, and a call for artists will be released soon after.
