Call for Artists: 2027/2028 Fergus Falls Sculpture Walk

Fergus Falls Sculpture Walk - Public Arts Commission

The Fergus Falls Public Arts Commission (PAC) is excited to announce its second Call for Art for the Fergus Falls Sculpture Walk—and we want to see what you’ve been creating!

This is a fantastic opportunity for sculptors to bring their work into the heart of downtown Fergus Falls, where art becomes part of the everyday experience. Imagine your sculpture greeting someone as they stroll along Lincoln Avenue, visit the farmers market, head to the library, explore Spies Park, or enjoy the riverfront.

Bring Your Sculpture to the Walk!

Thanks to generous private funding from local foundations, the PAC will select seven new sculptures for the 2027–2028 Sculpture Walk. Selected artists will receive a $2,000 honorarium per sculpture.

We are looking for work that brings originality, creativity, strong craftsmanship, and a compelling artistic vision to our public spaces.
