How can a business representative obtain assistance in booking/commissioning an artist?
Business people interested in commissioning or hiring an artist may contact the Arts Council staff to discuss commissioning or hiring an artist. If the person has a simple request, often staff will recommend artists who have been previously hired or commissioned through the jury processes used by the Arts Council. If a business requires a consultant, staff will discuss whether CAC can provide the service for a fee. In the past staff have designed and implemented artists selection processes for local businesses for award programs, functions, and commissioning public artworks. CAC is interested in covering its costs and ensuring artists are paid equitable sums for their work.
