Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about public art, art installation in the UK public sector.
How do I find public art tenders in the UK public sector?
Search live notices on Stotles, or watch a council's town centre regeneration or placemaking programme for the commissions it generates. Public art often follows a wider capital scheme, so a council running a public realm upgrade is a signal a related art commission may follow.
What does "art tenders" cover on this page?
Public art commissions and installations: sculptures, murals, light festivals and artist-led placemaking projects, usually tied to a town centre or regeneration scheme. It excludes art supplies, art therapy, and the many notices where "art" or "arts" appears only as a lot label inside an unrelated youth-services or museum-logistics contract.
Who commissions public art contracts?
Councils commission most public art work as part of town centre regeneration, public realm and placemaking schemes. Some is funded through wider capital programmes, such as National Lottery Heritage Fund-backed river or heritage projects that include a public art or interpretation element.
What CPV codes cover public art procurement?
92312000 (Artistic services) appears on 119 of the notices matching this filter, the most common code for commissioned public art and installation work.
