Help contribute to the exciting public art realm in Frankston City!

Council is seeking an experienced consultant to develop a Public Art Strategy for Frankston City.

As part of Council’s overall vision to elevate it’s positioning as an Arts & Culture destination that attracts visitors and engages locals, a focus on an ever – evolving, leading edge and culturally responsive public art strategy is sought.

Frankston City Council supports and understands the benefits and the need for public art, however, lacks some formal structure to consistently deliver both temporary and permanent public art programs spanning community-based projects, commissions, sculpture lease programs and capital works projects.

The strategy will include:

  • An integrated framework for the commissioning of temporary and permanent public artworks, ensuring the highest aesthetic standards are met in the commissioning, leasing, delivery, maintenance, conservation and decommissioning of Public Art, coupled with relevant consultation.
  • Strategies and recommendations as to how Frankston City Council can develop distinctly Frankston art experiences that appeal to broad market segments that people are willing to travel.
  • Highlight key areas throughout the municipality suitable for public art, in consideration of heritage overlay, environmental impact, culturally significant sites, visibility and land use suitability.
  • Identify opportunities to enhance existing relationships and seek new opportunities for partnerships to deliver high calibre, contemporary projects that elevate Frankston’s Public Art offerings.
  • To extend awareness and promotion of public art in the City.
  • Development of a concise action list to achieve vision.

The Strategy must set a long-term vision against short and medium term initiatives, prioritizing recommendations aimed at generating a clear action plan to achieve best outcomes.

Submissions should address the Project Specifications provided in this document and demonstrate ability to develop and deliver the outcomes identified in the Project Objectives.

The Strategy must be completed in its entirety by 30 September 2022.
