Downtown Albuquerque "Iconic" Art Design Competition

The Albuquerque Arts Board, the Albuquerque Public Art Program and the On the Map Downtown Design Competition Committee are calling all New Mexicans to share their ideas for an iconic artwork for Downtown Albuquerque. This is an ideas competition, and finalist designs may or may not result in further consideration for a real public art project. However, finalist designs will be put on display at the Albuquerque Museum of Art and History during the On the Map exhibition in spring 2015.
