The San Juan Islands Museum of Art and Sculpture Park is seeking submissions of large outdoor sculptures for the IMA Sculpture Park at Roche Harbor located adjacent to the Roche Harbor on the shores of Westcott Bay. The 19-acre sculpture park is a major Northwest art destination. The park received over 25,000 visitors in 2009 and sold more than $50,000 worth of sculptures during the last three months of the year. The park aims to quadruple this amount in 2010, and the artist’s commission has been increased to 70 percent.
The deadline for submissions is April 30, 2010, and early submissions are encouraged. Each artist may submit three entries along with a required non-refundable entry fee of $20. Accepted work must be installed by June 15, 2010.
Entry forms and further details are available at sjima.org. Submit entries to: Deborah Neff, Director, IMA Sculpture Park, PO Box 339, Friday Harbor, WA 98250 or sculpturepark@sjima.org.
