Community & Public Art<\/h2>\n<\/div>

The Crucible has a long history of partnering with other organizations and communities to create powerful place-based art works. Based on your needs, we\u2019d love to recommend artists from our community of makers for public art and community benefit projects.<\/p>\n

We are especially looking for groups interested in commissioning our Fuego Youth Leaders<\/a>, experienced makers who are 15-18 years old, to work with a Crucible mentor to complete community and public art pieces. Contact us to collaborate or ask for a bid.<\/p>\n

Do you have a more personal project? Submit it to our Jobs Board<\/a> so our community of artists can bid.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Commissioned Art Projects<\/h2>\n

We use site-relevant artists, experienced fabricators, professional project management, and our community-based educational focus to ensure more engaged stakeholders and a more collaborative outcome.<\/p>\n<\/div>
