CityCenterDC

Deadline: April 15, 2026

CityCenterDC will select one site specific, temporary public art installation to be installed in Palmer Alley for up to six months.

The work should offer a clear and compelling interpretation of American style. Entries may draw from fashion, graphic language, identity, cultural symbolism, movement, or material exploration. What matters most is a strong visual idea that reads clearly in an open, public setting and holds together at scale.

The winner will be awarded $10,000 and a budget of up to $100,000 for design, fabrication, and installation. The selected artist or team will work with an experienced local fabricator that has produced multiple installations at CityCenterDC. This collaboration allows artists to focus on concept and design while ensuring the work is executed with care and durability.
