NEWS As part of Mayor Ed FitzGerald’s 2010 Public Art Initiative, the City of Lakewood has received proposals from artists who are interested in designing a public art piece to enhance a proposed transit waiting environment (bus stop) in Downtown Lakewood. The City of Lakewood has been awarded a grant through Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority’s (RTA) Transit Waiting Environment Grant Program. The grant will enable the City to design and construct an improved bus stop near the intersection of Detroit Avenue and Warren Road in later summer 2010. A stipend of up to $5,000 is available to the selected Artist or Team (which must cover the construction cost of the art piece too). The jury selected to review proposals from local artists for Lakewood's Public Art Project are as follows: Analia Dimit of Dimit Architects Cindy Einhouse of Beck Center for the Arts Ruth Koenigsmark of Lakewood is Art Aref Shafik of The Design Firm David Stein of Plantation Home Danielle Willis of GCRTA The winning Artist or group of Artists chosen will be announced very soon.
