Money for recycled art in San Fran Freakshow
Just a few days left to submit proposals for the ScrapEdenSF project!
Artist’s proposals are due January 31, 2007. The Black Rock Arts Foundation
has launched a public art project for the environment: ScrapEdenSF.
Neighborhood groups will each collaborate with an artist in the creation of
temporary public sculptures made from reclaimed and recycled materials. BRAF
is now accepting applications for artist’s proposals. Learn how you can
participate! We plan to award grants to artists ranging from $5,000-$12,000
per project. Grant info and application:

Working with the Neighborhood Parks Council, BRAF has identified three
community groups associated with SF neighborhood parks to participate in the pilot phase of ScrapEden SF. Congratulations to the community groups
associated with the following parks: Juri Commons (Mission neighborhood),
Parque Ninos Unidos (Mission neighborhood), and Panhandle Park (NOPA/
Panhandle/ Upper Haight). For more information about the groups and their
parks: http://www.blackrockarts.org/projects/scrapeden-sf-park-sites
Do you live in the Mission, NOPA, Panhandle, or Upper Haight? Interested in
knowing what BRAF has going on in your SF ‘hood? Send an email with your
neighborhood in the subject line to ScrapEdenSF Project Director Rachel
Weidinger at rachelann@blackrockarts.org . She’ll keep you in the loop
about nifty goings on in 2007 in your very own neighborhood (and maybe even
on your block!)
