A new project has touched down in Decatur.

The Decatur Arts Alliance invites artists to submit design concepts for the creation of an original work of art on a life-size fiberglass COW! We are looking for an artist with a strong creative vision who can transform the cow into a distinctive work of public art that feels unmistakably Decatur. 🐄 $3,000 artist stipend for the design, materials, and installation of this fun and quick opportunity to flex your creative muscles in a unique format. Artists are encouraged to think broadly. Inspiration might come from Decatur's history, neighborhoods, architecture, arts and culture, natural environment, people, gathering places, or its role as the county seat. Creative, contemporary, unexpected, playful, and imaginative approaches are encouraged. Submissions are open now until September 29th. Review the accelerated timeline and full project details via the link in our bio or by visiting decaturartsalliance.org/opencalls/.
