Deadline Extended for the Call to Artists for Sculpture

​​Alachua County is excited to announce a call for artists to help design a unique outdoor sculpture that embodies the theme of justice for the new courthouse complex, slated for completion in early 2026.

Inspired by the iconic Contemplation of Justice statue and the Authority of Law statue at the U.S. Supreme Court, this project seeks an original, figurative artwork that reflects the spirit of justice without replicating these existing pieces.

Artists are encouraged to explore innovative concepts that resonate with the community's values and vision for justice.

Submission details are as follows:

• Deadline: Proposals are due by 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 18, 2024.
• Budget: The total budget for the sculpture is $100,000.
• Submission platform: All entries must be submitted via OpenGov.

We look forward to seeing the creativity and talent in our community come to life for this significant public art project.
