display across the digital screens of the library service and add 
locally-relevant content to The Atkinson museums extensive digital 
resources.

The artist or consortia appointed will be experienced in the successful 
delivery of community engagement processes, producers of original art of 
the highest quality in a digital format and effective communicators and 
project managers.

The commission fee is inclusive of costs associated with the community 
engagement programme, research and consultation processes and the 
generation of original interpretive artwork. The fee will be paid in 
installments and subject to successful completion of each commission 
stage. The estimated duration of this commission is approximately 12 
months from exchange of contracts.
