We are asking you all to help spread the word about this amazing opportunity to add site specific works to the airport, enhancing our public art collection city-wide.
The Concourse Expansion Program is DEN’s largest capital improvement project since the airport opened in 1995, aiming to meet the needs of DEN’s growing operations by expanding all three concourses and increasing gate capacity by 30%. DEN is also adding passenger amenities including dining and shopping options, a variety of comfortable seating choices, expansive restrooms, charging stations, pet relief areas and outdoor observation decks. The four unique locations for the inclusion of public art identified in the newly designed expansion areas are Concourse A-West, Concourse B-West, Concourse B-East, and Concourse C-East.
The four project sites have been split between two Request for Qualifications(RFQ) that artists may apply:
