Public Art and Community Dialogue Program Artist Call
Intentional Conversations. Transformative Art.
Fred Hutch is putting out a call for interested Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander visual artists. The selected artist will receive $5,000 for their work and participation in the Public Art and Community Dialogue program.
The Public Art and Community Dialogue program, led by the Fred Hutch DEI Core, provides an opportunity for employees and the broader community to be in dialogue about community solidarity and our pursuit of equity in research and health care. This program fosters dialogues with marginalized and oppressed communities to inform our commitment to inclusion, and how we represent that commitment in visual form.

About the Public Art & Community Dialogue Program
Led by the Fred Hutch Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, the Public Art and Community Dialogue program provides an opportunity for employees and the broader community to be in dialogue about community solidarity and our pursuit of equity in research and healthcare. This program will foster ongoing dialogues with marginalized and oppressed communities to inform our commitment to inclusion, and how we represent that commitment in visual form.
Selected artists from underrepresented and minoritized communities will develop public art expressions for Fred Hutch banners and flags that will be informed by these dialogues. These images will reflect the themes, emotions, expressions, history, culture, and aspirations of the affinity communities and the commitments of Fred Hutch to deepen our anti-racist and inclusive efforts in scientific excellence.
