PASADENA : Artist Sought to Help in Children’s Project
The Armory Center for the Arts is seeking an artist or group of artists to work with children on a 10-month public art project at Robinson and Washington parks.
The $69,000 project will be funded by a graffiti abatement grant from the county. Also, as part of the grant, the city’s Public Works Department will receive $31,000 to plant vines on walls at the park and paint out graffiti.
Plans for the public art project will be finalized at community forums, which have not been scheduled yet. The artist will work with residents and more than 3,000 children who take art classes through the armory on the project, which is expected to include hand-glazed tiles, photography and murals.
The artist will receive a $6,000 fee. Applications are due by 5 p.m. on Jan. 16. Information: (818) 792-5101.
