Lead Artist for Fleming Park Public Art

Eastleigh Borough Council is inviting submissions from Artists to develop and deliver a Public Art Commission within Fleming Park.

This project aims to use funding available to commission a shade-giving structure/s at the Park’s popular paddling pool replacing ‘umbrella’ structures which have reached the end of their life; as part of a wider programme of improvements.

For full information about the commission opportunity and how to apply please read the Artist’s Brief and Draft Artist’s Contract on the Council’s website.

Eligibility: The Appointed Artist will be expected to have a demonstrable track record of delivering Public Art projects; and have valid Public Liability Insurance of not less than £5,000,000.00. The Appointed Artist can be any nationality but must have the legal right to work in the UK. The Council is committed to equality of opportunity and believes in the benefits that a diverse portfolio can bring. We would encourage all applicants who meet the essential criteria to apply.

What you get: A commission budget of £25,000 is available to the Appointed Artist.

Deadline 17 March 2025
