RFP: Call for Artists – MacGregor Park Public Art RFP

Houston Parks Board (HPB) seeks qualifications and concepts from experienced artist teams for a two-site public art intervention in MacGregor Park, a 100-year-old regional park located in a historic African American neighborhood that connects to the Bayou Greenways system on Brays Bayou. This is a narrative infrastructure opportunity to elevate the park’s next century of placemaking. This opportunity calls for a conceptually rigorous and community- responsive artistic intervention. An opportunity to bring nature into the recreational spaces as well as honoring the individual histories at the below. There is a possibility that this opportunity could result in an additional site (separate budget) within the park.

  • Interior wall (321SF) within the entry of the Homer Tennis Center
  • Exterior community center wall (1307 SF) shared with the Basketball Pavillon

Budget for both sites is up to $230,000.
