BASWA would like to thank the Arts & Cultural Council of Greater Rochester and the New York State Council on the Arts for providing the funding for the 2009 Totem Bicycle Rack Project. The nine new designs were installed along South Avenue and Gregory Street in June 2009 and have been a colorful, whimsical, and functional addition to our neighborhood.

The Business Association of the South Wedge Area seeks to commission eight (8) sculptural artworks that will be sited over defunct parking meter posts or in other locations along South Avenue in the South Wedge neighborhood. The artwork must also be functional, in that it must also serve as a bicycle rack or lock up for one or two bicycles. Artists will receive $500 for their installed design. Submission deadline is February 28th, 2009. Full details of the project can be found in the Request for Proposals document, a link is provided to this document below.
