Seattle’s Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs has issued a pretty cool call for artists: they’re looking for an artist or artistic team to design on-street bicycle parking for the city. The selected artist will work with the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) staff to design, fabricate and install bicycle parking at two to four on-street locations, part of the city’s committment to the Bicycle Master Plan which is aimed at tripling the number of people bicycling in Seattle over the next ten years. For more details check out the Arts and Cultural Affairs webpage or contact SDOT art and enhancement project manager Vaughn Bell at 206.733.9960 or vaughn.bell@seattle.gov.
