CALL FOR ART: Hudson County Artists
Public Art Installation at Lincoln Park, Jersey City, NJ
IN THE WIND: A 25th Anniversary Public Art Installation
Produced by Art House Productions
Curated by Tina Maneca
Presented as part of the A.R.T. Phase II NJEDA Program in partnership with Hudson County Parks
In celebration of its 25th Anniversary, Art House Productions honors the vibrant creative community of Hudson County through a large-scale public art installation.
Art House invites artists who live, work, or maintain a studio in Hudson County to submit original artwork for “In The Wind,” a 100-flag outdoor installation in Lincoln Park, Jersey City.
Selected works will be reproduced as 36" x 48" flags and installed throughout the park, creating a dynamic exhibition shaped by light, scale, and movement.
