Would
you
or
someone
you
know
like
to
be
a
part
of
adding
more
sparkle
to
the
south
loop
creative
place?
Making
is
calling
for
creative
spark,
sculpture
proposals,
they're
looking
for
engaging
permanent
or
temporary
sculptures
that
will
add
beauty
to
the
south
loop
and
create
a
more
walkable
community.
Three
to
five
applicants
will
be
selected.
You
need
to
be
at
least
18
years
old
and
live
in
minnesota
to
submit
a
proposal.
I
spoke
with
the
director
of
creative
placemaking
who
says
these
art
installations
will
also
help
support
economic
growth.
B
We're
hiring
local
artists
and
busi
and
artists
are
entrepreneurs,
they're,
small
local
businesses
and
then
that
artist
usually
works
with
other
artists
that
are
local
or
vendors
that
are
local,
they'll,
buy
materials
and
supplies.
That
will
be
local
as
well.
So
all
of
this
is
already
contributing
money
into
the
local
economy,
and
then,
once
the
sculpture
is
up,
it
helps
drive
tourism.
B
It
helps
promote
people,
perhaps
patronizing
local
businesses
or
restaurants,
and
so
the
more
that
we
can
create
these
types
of
spaces
where
people
want
to
gather
the
more
the
economy
will
benefit
from
that.
They
also
help
drive,
not
only
the
economic
impact
but
development,
advancements
and
property
values
by
making
the
area
more
attractive,
welcoming
and
dynamic.
