Public Art Test Site

We have several large spaces that can serve as a public art project test site for artists to hone their art construction process, create a prototype, or finish a large scale mural to be later installed at a different location.

An outdoor area with an iron gantry reaching 24 feet high that can be a space to create a prototype for outdoor projects that deal with elements of light, wind, weight, weather and safety. This test site will yield prototypes for larger installations with full documentation of process, construction materials, installation fees, artist fees, housing, insurance, equipment rental (scissor lifts, cranes etc,) budgeting skills, and engineering reports.

We also have a dedicated indoor space that is perfect for the creation of a large-scale mural on wooden panels or fabric. This technique and the space allows artists to create pieces that can be bought and installed at a later date.

The Public Art Test Site at CUBE will help artists apply for public art commissions with confidence and material to back up their creations as well as push artists beyond their comfort zone.

This test site would be a first of its kind and will draw artists, initially from our own community, and then from artists from all over the world to help increase their creative capacity and to help move them into art possibilities previously open to only a handful of artists.

NOTE: This project is open to artists of -2d/3d visual, film/projection, sound, music, dance, performance, and experimental arts.
