The State of New York is dedicated to recognizing the important contributions of LGBTQ+ people throughout its history. In 2019, the State of New York dedicated a park in Brooklyn (formerly known as East River State Park) to the transgender pioneer and activist, Marsha P. Johnson. OPRHP will build a decorative Gateway entrance to the park to draw the attention of the public and communicate a message of welcome and acceptance for all people entering the park. OPRHP seeks a Project Team to design, fabricate and install the decorative Gateway. The RFP is open to all artists, artisans, architects, landscape architects, and teams with experience in public art, site responsive design, project management and construction administration. Each Project Team should include members with experience in the design, fabrication and installation of public art to fulfill the requirements of the RFP. Only one entity from the Project Team may submit a bid, and if awarded, that entity will be the prime contractor. Commissioned by OPRHP, the selected Project Team will create an ornamental Gateway to be located at the Kent Avenue/North Eighth Street entrance to Marsha P. Johnson State Park in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn.
