A public art project for the installation of a sculpture in the roundabout located at San Pablo Avenue and the eastern entrance to College of the Desert in Palm Desert, California. 

About the Project

The Cultural Arts Committee appointed by the City Council invites artists to create a signature sculptural installation for the northern roundabout on San Pablo Avenue—a key gateway that marks the transition between Palm Desert’s civic and cultural core and its surrounding residential and commercial neighborhoods.

Serving as a visual anchor at the north end of the revitalized corridor, the sculpture(s) will contribute to San Pablo’s identity as a dynamic, pedestrian-friendly city center. Artists may propose a single large-scale piece or a series of coordinated sculptures. Works that incorporate lighting are encouraged to enhance nighttime visibility and impact. Water and kinetic features will not be considered.
