A city committee is looking for proposals to help freshen up its newest outdoor park.

The Winnipeg Arts Council has launched a call for artists to create proposals for Odeon Park, located near the Burton Cummings Theatre.

“The new city park will feature an open area, a stage, and plenty of seating surrounded by trees and planters,” a call for proposals reads. “Most days, it will offer a peaceful, green spot for relaxation and recreation. During events, it will come alive as a festival site and gathering space.”

The budget for the project is $100,000, and local artists can apply.

The council said the art will be selected in a two-stage process. The first stage will be focused on the approach and qualifications of the artist.

The deadline for submissions is Dec. 3.
