Cultural Arts Manager – City of Virginia Beach
Coordinate cultural arts operations functions for the Cultural Affairs Department, including providing financial, human resources, planning, and promotional support for the department. Oversee cultural and museum facilities including: programming and program development, revenue creation and management, marketing, maintenance, emergency planning and management, and capital improvement projects.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Public Art Planning Committee seeks to hire an artist to design and create exterior artwork that represents healing, hope, and resiliency. The work should be elegant, sophisticated, and visually stimulating. We hope the artwork will convey a sense of peace and serenity and lift-up the patients, families, and staff who come to the building. Artists may want to explore organic, natural themes and shapes that are tactile and engaging.

PROJECT SITE: The beautiful, contemporary glass and stone building was designed as a place of healing. Artwork, plants, and furnishings embellish a light-filled interior that evokes calmness. There is a healing garden and fountain on the side of the building, adjacent to the parking garage currently under construction. Artists should consider the dialogue between the architecture, the local area, and the artwork to complement the building and the building’s use. The artwork will mark the Main Entrance and will serve as a visual point of reference.

SIZE/MEDIUM: The artwork should be at a scale to complement the building but not obstruct entrance into the building by pedestrians or cars pulling into the drop off area. It will be experienced up close by pedestrian traffic as the sculpture will be featured in the large peninsula shaped sidewalk. It must be constructed of durable, permanent materials that are safe and easily maintained. Artwork should be constructed and operate to the highest level of sustainability.
