Launch Pad

City of Vancouver
Vancouver BC
Canada
The City of Vancouver Public Art Program invites artists who have recently completed art training to submit already existing 2D artworks for consideration on one of five city-owned billboards along the Arbutus Greenway, situated between Fir St and Burrard St adjacent to 6th Avenue. Recognizing the barriers recent fine arts graduates face entering the professional arts sector, the City of Vancouver Public Art Program looks forward to supporting artists launching their artistic practices.
This call is open to all Vancouver-based artists, and artists from xʷməθkʷəy̓əm(Musqueam), sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) or səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) nations, who graduated within the last year from a BFA, MFA, Fine Arts Diploma program, or completed a formal or informal apprenticeship program.
