City of Waterloo is inviting artists to submit a proposal to be part of Lumen 2023. The festival will take place on September 23, 2023 from 6 – 11 p.m. in spaces throughout uptown Waterloo. All work will feature the interplay between light, art, and technology and should include an interactive, collaborative, or participatory component.
Artists are invited to submit proposals for their installation to be placed in one or more locations in Uptown Waterloo. Up to ten (10) artists will be selected as part of this open call and will receive a fee of $2,000 (inclusive of artist fees, travel, supplies, etc) for their participation in the festival. Previously exhibited work is welcomed.
Last year’s festival was attended by over 35,000 people who participated in the artist offering in the uptown core. We look forward to another great year showcasing light, art, and technology-based installations by renowned artists that will light up Waterloo!
Application Deadline: April 5, 2023 by 5:00 p.m. EST
