4Culture Calls

RapidRide Expansion Art Master Plan

Deadline: September 16, 2019, 4PM PDT
Budget: $50,000 [Budget is inclusive of artist fee, travel, and applicable taxes. A separate contingency fund has been established for the development of the master plan documentation.]
Eligibility: Open to artists and curators, working independently or as a team, who reside in the United States or British Columbia and have experience doing large-scale, arts-related planning work with a focus on equity and social justice.

King County and the Seattle region are experiencing unprecedented population growth. To meet the ever-increasing demand for high quality transit service, a massive expansion of the RapidRide system, King County Metro’s arterial bus rapid transit service, is underway. Six new lines will launch between 2021 and 2025. The lines will serve historically disadvantaged communities, geographies with high ridership potential, and balance transit investment throughout King County, WA. The planning and deployment of these new lines presents an exciting opportunity for artistic impact across the County.

4Culture, which commissions artwork for shared public space, and King County Metro seek a planning artist and/or curator to develop a master plan for artistic impact across the system of six new bus rapid transit lines.
