Public Art Commission: Yate Youth Café

Artists are invited to submit ideas for the public art programme for the new Youth Café  for Young People in Yate,  South Gloucestershire.  

Proposals are sought which respond to three main areas identified:  

·          the outside front  wall(s) of the building and possibly the front entrance.
·          the external lighting scheme
·          options to enhance the windows, eg: Transparencies or stained glass 

Artists are free to either respond to one or more of the above or develop an artistic approach which incorporates all elements. The artist's research process for each site should look to engage with the qualities and use of the space and respond accordingly.  

It is of utmost importance that proposals consider how best to engage and interact with all users of the youth centre and the wider community.  Artists should consider how the work will interest, challenge and relate to both the main clientele of the building (13-19 year-olds) and the wider community to form an appropriate gateway to the town centre.  

The artist will be required to deliver workshop or educational/consultation events to engage young people and the wider community. Artists must be prepared to mentor other artists should they be required.  

Total Budget: £ 66,700

Closing date for applications: 20 July 2010
