SculptureOne's Partner Network 2024 Call to Sculptors

The SculptureOne Partner's Network provides artists the opportunity to exhibit sculptures in 7 different communities across the Midwest: CityArt Walking Sculpture Tour (Mankato, MN), Sculpture Tour (Eau Claire, WI), River City Sculptures on Parade (Mason City, IA), Arts R Alive (Webster City, IA), and satellite programs in Sturgis, SD, De Smet, SD, and Maryville, MO. Artists may submit up to five original sculptures. Each sculpture exhibited in a Partner program receives a $1,000 honorarium upon installation, plus shipping reimbursement and hotel accommodations during installation. If a sculpture circulates to all four Partner programs, honorariums total $4,000; including satellites, the total reaches $8,000.

Each program offers awards including Juror's Purchase Awards, People's Choice Awards, and Best of Show Awards with varying prize amounts. CityArt Walking Sculpture Tour features a Juror's Purchase Award up to $18,000, People's Choice Award of $1,000, and Best of Show Awards of $1,000 each. Sculpture Tour offers Best of Show Awards of $1,000 each and a People's Choice Purchase Award up to $15,000.

All sculptures must be in new condition upon delivery. The Partner programs retain a 25% commission on any sculpture sold due to its visibility in the programs (10% for specially commissioned works). All partners provide liability and comprehensive insurance coverage.
