A unique challenge has been issued to local artists by the Public Arts Advisory Committee of Twentynine Palms: Envision the surface decoration for a portable replica of the iconic “29!” sculpture. The sculpture, which is 96 inches wide and 72 inches high, will be mounted on a trailer and displayed at various community functions and public locations throughout the year. Artists are invited to submit conceptual sketches to the committee by February 15, and the challenge is open to individual artists and art groups. Three finalists will be selected to elaborate their concepts, and each will be awarded $200 to compensate for time and materials. $1000 will be awarded to the winning artist or group along with $500 for materials. The final product must be durable, weatherproof, and easily maintained. For more information visit www.29 palms.org or call Jon Beard at (760) 367-7562.
