Call for Expressions of Interest: Public Art – Alton Terrace Reimagined, City of Burlington

Commission to reimagine the Alton Community Centre terrace (3040 Tim Dobbie Dr., Burlington, ON) as an immersive public artwork celebrating civic identity, collective memory, and community belonging. Artists may propose sculptural elements, painted murals on concrete walls or paving tiles, vinyl wraps, functional design elements (benches, shade structures), and interactive features. Designated areas include a glass railing, concrete wall, paving tiles, garden bed, open space, and ping pong table (which must remain but may be relocated or incorporated into the design). The selected artist will develop a detailed design and community engagement plan in consultation with staff and a selection panel, and must facilitate all installation phases, public engagement activities, and the unveiling event (Summer–Fall 2026).
