ArtsOC has issued a call for artist submissions for the selection and permanent placement of art at the
Santa Ana Veterans Village now under construction.
Work #1 will be placed in front of the building and must be designed to function as a bicycle rack. The site for
Work #2 is larger and is located in the building's courtyard. Artists are invited to submit proposals for either or both of these opportunities. Santa Ana Veterans Village is a project of
Jamboree Housing, an Orange County-based nonprofit developer of affordable housing. ArtsOC has been contracted by Jamboree Housing to manage the artists selection process and installation.
