During the Request for Qualifications, RFQ Phase, PHASE I, an Art This Way jury review panel will evaluate initial RFQ application responses according to the criteria outlined within the Prospectus. Up to 3 artists or groups of artists whose proposed qualifications demonstrate, in the review panel’s sole opinion, the qualifications that best fulfill the purposes of this project will move to the finalist selection phase, PHASE II. In PHASE II artists will be hired to create proposal concepts based on the project theme. Those proposals will undergo a jury review. The selected artist in PHASE II will be contracted to implement their mural concept in Fort Wayne, IN in 2025. If a satisfactory design concept is not approved by the jury review committee and/or the Fort Wayne Public Art Commission, this project may not move forward.
