A suggested theme of the sculpture would be to pay homage to the firefly (lightning bug), an insect on the decline that lights local fields and meadows during the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The $20,000 fee would include all material, installation, and transportation costs, as well as modeling, electrical costs, testing, and any outsourcing used. There is no entry fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Proposals or links should be emailed to&nbsp;<a>hope@wassenbergartcenter.org<\/a>. Those who would like to submit a small machete or model, can call 419.238.6837 for an appointment. To obtain a complete prospectus, send to the above email address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deadline for proposals is Friday, February 15, at 5 p.m. (late submissions not accepted). The finish and install deadline is May 30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on classes, exhibits, and events, call Wassenberg Art Center at the above number or email&nbsp;<a>info@wassenbergartcenter.org<\/a>or access the center\u2019s website at&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wassenbergartcenter.org\/\">www.wassenbergartcenter.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VW independent\/submitted information Wassenberg Art Center is seeking a design for a kinetic, wind, and-or human powered sculpture for its Art Park and is willing to pay $20,000 to the person who comes with the successful design.
