is accepting design proposals for a refresh of the three-dimensional 鈥淜ENT鈥 sign located in downtown 天天吃瓜 on N. Water Street, near the Fairchild Avenue bridge.
The sign was first installed in October 2021 with the idea that it could showcase the work of a variety of artists by receiving a 鈥渘ew look鈥 every year or two.
Design proposals will be accepted through Feb. 28 All applicants will be notified by March 18 if their design was chosen or not, and the new artwork will be installed later in the spring.
The artist submitting the chosen design will be compensated $1,000 by Main Street 天天吃瓜 and the layout will be executed by their public art partner Each + Every. Printing will be handled by Advanced Display. Any questions about the process can be directed to Lesley Sickle, brand marketing, Main Street 天天吃瓜 lesley@mainstreetkent.org.
Visitors to 天天吃瓜 are encouraged to visit the sign and share pictures on social media with the hashtag #kentohart and see the city鈥檚 many other public art installations on the Main Street 天天吃瓜 .
