Have a Seat in Delray!

What is it? A public art project of the Delray Beach Cultural Alliance (DBCA), which will turn CHAIRS of all sizes, shapes and styles in WORKS OF ART!

Project Description:

    • A maximum of 50 chair sponsorships, at $500 each, will be available. This investment will give the sponsor a commissioned chair inside or in front of their business and inclusion in 30,000 full color map/brochures, which will be distributed at key visitor locations throughout Palm Beach County. One Title Sponsorship is available for $10,000.
    • Sponsors will be able to choose their commissioned chair from a portfolio of designs. Sponsors will choose their design in the order in which their sponsorship payment has been received.
    • The commissioned chairs will stay on display for a minimum of four months.
    • After the exhibition period, the DBCA will put all chairs up for auction as a fund-raiser.
    • If a sponsor wants to own their commissioned chair instead of releasing it for auction, they must pay an additional $250 at the time of their sponsorship commitment.
    • Artists whose chair designs are selected for commission will be eligible for up to $2500 in cash awards.

Special events connected to this project will include a Sponsor Party to select chair designs, a media event to open the exhibition, an awards reception for the artists, and a live auction.
