PROJECT DETAILS
The City of San Bruno Culture and Arts Commission invites
artists to submit proposals for a permanent outdoor sculpture to be
installed at Posy Park. Located at the intersection of Huntington
Avenue and San Mateo Avenue, Posy Park is a prominent public plaza
situated just outside the San Bruno Caltrain station and is a gateway
to downtown San Bruno. Additionally, the park features a tile mural
commemorating the city’s history, making it a key cultural landmark and
potential community gathering place
.
The sculpture will serve as the focal point of a broader revitalization
effort at Posy Park, which will include a repaired fountain, refreshed
landscaping, new bicycle lockers, and restoration of the existing tile
mural.
This public art installation will enhance the visual appeal and
community value of the park, helping to connect residents and visitors
to San Bruno’s dynamic identity.
The submission is open to all professional artists aged 18 and over.
Proposals will be reviewed by an ad-hoc selection committee composed of members of the San Bruno Culture and Arts Commission.
Public input with be gathered through a survey that invites community
feedback based on the finalists’ proposals. The full Commission will
consider the committee’s recommendation and survey results before
forwarding a final recommendation to the San Bruno City Council for
approval.
