Sculpture Evergreen Sculpture Walk 2023

Sculpture Evergreen has established a program of public art acquisition to beautify open spaces and public buildings in Evergreen, CO, in the foothills west of Denver. The annual Sculpture Walk, initiated in 1999, is a juried exhibition of up to 16 large sculptures suitable for outdoor display. All works must be original. A stipend of $1,000 will be awarded for each accepted sculpture, and there is a Juried Award of $1,000 for artistic excellence. Sculptures will be on display for one year until June 1, 2024.

Sculptures must be at least 4 feet tall to be eligible, with pieces between 4-12 feet in height having the best chance of selection. All sculptures must be soundly and professionally constructed to withstand wind gusts up to 75 mph and must have a steel mounting plate for welding to a pedestal, another suitable attachment method, or be of sufficient weight and durability to be safely placed on the ground. The entry fee is $25 for up to two pieces, with an additional $10 for a third piece. Each submission must include three photos: front, rear, and detail. Artists may submit up to three pieces total.

Sculptures will be installed on Saturday, June 3, 2023, and artists must be present for installation. Overnight accommodations will be provided for artists traveling more than 50 miles from Evergreen. Artists must also be present for deinstallation in June 2024. All sculptures will be listed for sale in a published brochure and on the website. Sculpture Evergreen receives a 25% commission on any sales during the exhibition. Sculpture Evergreen will provide full insurance for all installed artwork. Artists will be notified of acceptance by phone in mid-February 2023.
