July 11th: Request for Qualification: Tony Marron Park Pavilion
Buffalo Bayou Partnership and Public Canvas invite visual artists and teams to submit their qualifications for a semi-permanent (10-year lifespan) public art opportunity at Tony Marron Park, located in Houston’s historic East End. This commission will transform the park’s prominent stucco pavilion into a visually dynamic and community-centered landmark. The selected work will be integrated into the broader improvements underway at this park, which will serve as the green space hub of Buffalo Bayou East, expanding from 19 to 40 acres. The goal of this artwork is to enhance the visual identity of the site, but also to invite reflection, celebration, and engagement with the natural and cultural landscape of Buffalo Bayou.
