Hall County government is issuing a call for artists to participate in its public art program.
The program is for artists interested in displaying two-dimensional works of art for six months at the Browns Bridge Road campus.
“We originally issued an open call for artists in May, but we’ve reopened the invitation in an effort to garner a broader selection of pieces for display in the government center,” Hall County spokeswoman Katie Crumley said.
The artworks will be on display in 25 locations on the second, third and fourth floor of the building conducive for public art display. And the theme of the program’s first show is a play off the county’s slogan, “We have it all in Hall.”
Artists are encouraged to submit up to five pieces representing Hall County and its unique history, landscape, offerings and inherent features.
“We want to celebrate Hall County through art and provide local artists with yet another opportunity to have their work displayed to mass audiences,” Hall County administrator Randy Knighton said.
The deadline for submissions is Tuesday, Nov. 22. Artwork is expected to be installed after the first of the year. Artists will be recognized with a reception prior to a Hall County Board of Commissioners voting meeting.
