The Sammamish Arts Commission in cooperation with the Sammamish City Council is seeking artists, who will design and create an art piece for one of Sammamish Community Parks. The Commission is approaching the theme “Celebrating Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” where Diversity means a mix of different identities and cultures, Equity to acknowledge that we do not always start on a level playing field, and Inclusion to acknowledge individual voices and power. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is a priority to the city.
City of Sammamish’s Proclamation Reaffirming Principles and Values of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
As your city government, our role is to bring people together and not divide them. Our job is to be welcoming of all people and all ideas in recognition that we truly are stronger and smarter together. We need to recognize certain essential principles and conduct our government and hopefully our lives consistent with those principles.
From the City’s DEI page: https://connect.sammamish.us/equity-diversity-inclusion
Commission hopes the artwork feels welcoming and inclusive for different identities and cultures to enjoy and experience the artwork in their own way. The goal is to offer a vision of how DEI can evolve and provide a better, more equitable, and inclusive future.

A dynamic public art experience as well as an ongoing opportunity for sculptors to exhibit their work. The exhibit places sculptures in five outdoor locations in downtown Winslow on beautiful Bainbridge Island. The five locations include the pedestal in front of T & C on Winslow Way and Erickson, the pedestal at the south end of Madison Ave, S. (in the Doc’s plaza), the pedestal at the entry door of Bainbridge Island City Hall building, one is Waterfront Park, and one west of the Senior Center near Waterfront Park. 
Selected works remain on display for approximately 11 months after which they are removed to make room for the next collection, offering Bainbridge Islanders and visitors “something new” every year.
In addition to the five new pieces to be temporarily exhibited as part of the Something New exhibit, Bainbridge Island has a Public Art Collection consisting of 24 works, the majority of which are also located in downtown Winslow.
The City’s Public Art Program is supported by volunteer members of the Public Art Committee (PAC), a sub-committee of Arts & Humanities Bainbridge (AHB). For more information, please visit https://ahbainbridge.org/public-art-2/ and bainbridgewa.gov/956/Public-Art-Program.

An artist, curator or artist team will work with 4Culture and King County Parks to develop an art plan for King County Parks’ extensive network of parks, regional and backcountry trails, and open spaces in collaboration with the unique communities they connect to throughout King County, WA.As the Puget Sound region in Washington continues to develop, public lands, including the network of parks, trails, and open spaces stewarded by King County Parks (KC Parks), become an even more important asset to the public. The impacts of Covid-19 on society have highlighted the outdoors as a safe place to interact with people, as well as create positive impacts on mental health and wellbeing. During the pandemic we have looked to these spaces to gather, work, play, exercise, and explore. KC Parks continues to expand its network of recreational spaces into denser urban areas, rural land, and the backcountry to provide ample opportunities for outdoor access.
4Culture and KC Parks seek a planning artist, curator, or artist team to develop a dynamic arts plan which holistically considers the future development of KC Parks network of parks, trails and open spaces, and authentically engage with the unique communities that these valuable public spaces reach.
