The Orange County Public Art Review Board (OCPARB) seeks completed artwork appropriate for the world-class Orange County Convention Center (OCCC), the Center of Hospitality, in Orlando, Florida. The OCCC values nature, water and ecology. The community that hosts the Center has grown from being a major citrus producer and leader in tourism to a center of innovation and technology as well.

Project Description: Some of the smaller spaces, such as boardrooms, conference room, cafĂ©, etc. at the Center would be enhanced with art on the walls. The spaces are frequently used by OCCC clients and the artwork should be a professional enhancement to the room. Our budget will purchase art for up to 11 walls.  A wide spectrum of photography, painting, prints or other 2-dimensional art are possibilities.

Budget: The total artwork budget for all pieces to be purchased is $58,500.  Artwork to be purchased must be ready to hang. Purchase price must include all costs including framing or finishing, shipping and delivery.
