Public Art Lincoln Requests Submissions for Lincoln Billboard Art Project

Public Art Lincoln (lincolnpublicart.org) is requesting submissions of artwork for presentation on one of 10 billboards throughout the city. The Lincoln Billboard Art project, generously supported by The Sherwood Foundation, the Lincoln Community Foundation, and Lamar Advertising, aims to unite, support, inspire, and bring joy and healing to our community through public art while providing financial support to local artists during the pandemic.

Individual artists over the age of 18 living or working in Lincoln may submit one artwork to be considered for placement on a billboard. Selection preference will be given to artists whose primary sources of income have been immediately impacted by the pandemic and its economic repercussions.

Artists selected for billboard presentation will receive a $1,000 stipend. Artwork on billboards will be in place for four weeks. All artwork submitted will be featured on the Public Art Lincoln website at lincolnpublicart.org.
