REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS/REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL

I.INTRODUCTION

Salt Lake County is requesting Qualifications from artists who are Utah residents who wish to participate in an open competition for an interior or exterior public art project at the Larry H. & Gail Miller Arts Center (Miller Arts Center) in South Jordan, Utah. Up to $145,000 has been designated for the acquisition of artwork through this process.

This opportunity is open only to artists who are residents of Utah.

For the purposes of this RFQ, a “Utah resident” is defined as an individual who maintains their primary residence in the State of Utah at the time of application and for the duration of the project, if selected. A primary residence is the place where the artist lives on a permanent basis and to which they intend to return. Proof of residency may be required and may include, but is not limited to, a valid Utah driver’s license or state-issued identification, voter registration, lease agreement, property ownership records, or recent utility bills in the artist’s name. Individuals residing in Utah on a temporary basis, including for educational or short-term purposes, without establishing permanent residency are not considered Utah residents under this definition.

Artist-led team applications are welcome. Each team must be led by an individual with a demonstrated history of professional activity as an artist. The lead artist must meet the Utah residency requirements outlined above and must submit the application on behalf of the team, clearly identifying themselves as the team lead. Team members other than the lead artist are not required to be Utah residents. Teams may not substitute members after submission without prior written consent from the Project Selection Committee. An artist may only submit one application, either as an individual artist or as part of a single team.

Following an initial review, up to three semi-finalists will be selected and invited to submit a full proposal for the project. Semi-finalists will be asked to make individual presentations to the Selection Committee, reviewing their project proposal, showcasing past work, and detailing their approach to the project.

To participate, applicants must have a valid U.S. Tax Identification Number (SSN, EIN, ITIN, or other).

II.PURPOSE

The County plans to contract with an artist or artist team to create a unique interior or exterior artwork that will be installed on-site at the new Miller Arts Center. The art piece will be located and focused on the area of the venue that bridges the Visual Art Gallery, Studio Theater, and Classroom spaces. See Exhibit B for more details on the location.

GOALS

It is the intent of Salt Lake County to enter into a contract with an artist or artist team for this public art piece to ensure that project requirements are met, the best value is achieved, the project budget is maintained, the timeline is upheld, and a unified approach is carried out by all members of the project team.

Project Must Address:

• Aesthetic Compatibility: The artwork must complement the building’s architectural design, enhance the overall visual appeal of the site, and integrate into the venue’s environment.

• Safety and Durability: The artwork must adhere to all mandatory safety standards and be built to withstand internal or external environmental conditions. It should be designed for long-term durability and structural stability and require minimal maintenance.

• Quality and Craftsmanship: The artwork should reflect the highest artistic standards, showcase excellence in design and craftsmanship, while pushing creative boundaries.

• Scale Appropriateness: The artwork should be thoughtfully scaled to fit the site, maintaining a harmonious balance with the venue’s size and architectural features, ensuring a well-integrated visual presence.

Project is Encouraged to Address:

• Storytelling Through Movement: Through its sense of movement and progression, the artwork should tell a story and visually guide visitors through the designated location. It should create a narrative experience that unfolds as people move through the space, a form of storytelling unique to the medium of public art.

• A Spark for Creative Making: The artwork should inspire visitors of all ages and should be a catalyst for imagination and creative confidence, celebrating curiosity, experimentation, and the joy of making.

• Uniting Visual and Performance Art: Miller Arts Center is the first county-owned venue to include a visual art gallery and classrooms, formally uniting visual and performing arts in one venue. The art piece should acknowledge and celebrate the coming together of these two art forms. It should reflect the shared energy, expression, and collaboration between disciplines.

• Celebrating the Artistic Process: The artwork should honor the creative process itself — the rehearsal, revision, risk-taking, and discovery that happens behind the scenes. It should embody the spirit of artistic growth and transformation that defines the purpose of this arts center.

Please Note: Multiple public art projects are planned for this venue. One exterior and one interior artwork have already been selected through the Salt Lake County procurement process. This local-only proposal opportunity is a separate project and will be reviewed by a Selection Committee specifically created for this project. They will review all submissions and select an artist or artist team for this project.

III.BACKGROUND

The Larry H. & Gail Miller Arts Center is the newest Salt Lake County Arts & Culture venue and will serve as a regional cultural center for visual and performing arts in the heart of Downtown Daybreak in South Jordan. The Miller Arts Center broke ground in March 2026, and the grand opening is anticipated for mid-2028.

Plans for the approximately 89,000-square-foot facility include an 800-seat proscenium theater, flexible performance and rehearsal spaces, and in a first for a Salt Lake County venue, Miller Arts Center includes a visual art gallery and arts classrooms. The center is expected to become an arts destination, presenting artists from the community, the region, and across the country and will host performances, exhibitions, educational programming, and community events designed to serve audiences of all ages.

The Miller Arts Center, designed by Method Studio, is a dynamic, sculptural building that embodies the energy and expression of the arts. The architectural form features folded planes and creases, creating an interplay of light and shadow that will transform the building into a glowing lantern at night. This design symbolizes the theatrical curtain, representing the threshold between reality and imagination, while embodying the magic of performance and the arts.

Salt Lake County’s Art in Public Places program will incorporate four site-specific artworks, such as murals and sculptures, to further enhance the center. Art in Public Places supports local artists and strengthens our community identity by integrating art into county spaces across the valley. The program’s collections feature a wide range of media, including paintings, photography, mixed media, and sculptures.

As part of Salt Lake County’s commitment to sustainability, the facility will be built to meet USGBC LEED Gold certification standards, which will be confirmed upon completion of construction.

The Miller Arts Center is made possible through both Salt Lake County funding and a transformative $25 million investment from the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation.

The investment reflects the Miller Family’s deep commitment to enriching the community through the arts and demonstrates Salt Lake County’s dedication to expanding access to cultural experiences across the valley.

This regional cultural center addresses the long-documented demand for live performing arts and visual arts spaces in the southwest region as identified in Arts & Culture’s 2008 and 2020 Cultural Master Plans.

Salt Lake County Arts & Culture is dedicated to supporting the county’s vibrant arts community through a variety of programs, including the Zoo, Arts & Parks (ZAP) grant program. Through its spaces, places, services, and programs, the division fosters community engagement and provides opportunities for shared cultural experiences.

IV.SCOPE OF WORK

The Design Team – including the architects, theater planners, and representatives from Salt Lake County Arts & Culture, County Facilities, and Art in Public Places have determined that this commission should be one cohesive public artwork.

The artwork will be located within the interior and/or exterior public areas of the facility, specifically connecting and responding to:

o The Visual Arts Gallery – the primary exhibition space for rotating visual art exhibitions.

o The Classroom Area – the dedicated arts education space primarily serving youth and community classes.

o The Studio Theater – the performance space designed for rehearsals, small productions, and community performances.

While the artwork may extend across multiple sites within these designated areas, the intent is to commission one unified and conceptually cohesive work rather than multiple independent pieces.

Final placement location(s) within the designated areas will be determined in collaboration with the selected artist after the contract is executed. Salt Lake County will enter into a single agreement with one Utah-based artist or one artist-led team. If applying as a team, the lead artist must be a current Utah resident. This opportunity is open only to artists who reside in Utah.

The estimated installation and completion date for this project is Summer 2028.

XIII.NOTICE TO APPLICANTS

By submitting a proposal to this RFQ, Proposer understands and agrees to the following:

A. Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA):

County is a governmental entity subject to the Utah Government Records Access and Management Act (“GRAMA”), Utah Code Ann. §§ 63G-2-101 to -901. As a result, County is required to disclose certain information and materials to the public, upon request. Generally, any document submitted to County is considered a “public record” under GRAMA. Any person who provides to County a record that the person believes merits protection under subsection 63G-2- 305(1) or (2) must submit with their proposal all of the following: (1) a written claim of business confidentiality, (2) a concise statement of reasons supporting the claim of business confidentiality, and (3) a separate copy of the proposal with the information requested to be protected redacted. Failure to comply with any of the three requirements for a claim of business confidentiality waives the request for protected record. Generally, GRAMA only protects against the disclosure of trade secrets or commercial information that could reasonably be expected to result in unfair competitive injury. For your convenience, County has provided a Business Confidentiality Request Form which is attached to this RFQ as Attachment C. All documents submitted in response to this RFQ will be treated as public records in accordance with GRAMA unless a claim of business confidentiality has been properly made and approved by County.

All proposed costs/pricing/fees submitted to the county are public records.

An entire proposal cannot be identified as “PROTECTED,” “CONFIDENTIAL,” or “PROPRIETARY” and may be considered non-responsive if marked as such.

B. Copyrighted Material Waiver: In the event that the proposal contains copyrighted or trademarked materials, by submitting its proposal the Proposer grants the County the right to use, reproduce, and publish the copyrighted or trademark materials in any manner the County deems necessary for conducting County business and for allowing public access to the responses under GRAMA or otherwise, including but not limited to photocopying, County Intranet/Internet postings, broadcast faxing, and direct mailing.

If the proposal contains materials whose copyright or trademark is held by a third party, it is the Proposer’s sole responsibility to obtain permission from that third party for the County to reproduce and publish the information.

By submitting its proposal, the Proposer certifies that it owns or it has obtained all necessary approvals for the reproduction or distribution of the contents of the proposal and agrees to indemnify, protect, save and hold the County, its representatives and employees harmless from any and all claims arising from all intellectual property claims related or connected to the proposal and agrees to pay all legal fees incurred by the County in the defense of any such action.

C. Restrictions On Communications: From the issue date of this solicitation until a Proposer is selected and the selection is announced, Proposers are prohibited from communications regarding this procurement with agency staff, evaluation committee members, or other associated individuals EXCEPT the Buyer overseeing this procurement. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in disqualification.

D. RFQ Cancellation: This RFQ may be cancelled at any time prior to the execution of a written agreement if deemed in the best interests of County. This includes cancellation of the RFQ after an award has been made, but prior to the execution of a written contract. Proposer is not entitled to recover any costs related to the preparation of the proposal due to cancellation of the RFQ or withdrawal of an award prior to the execution of a written agreement.

E. Firm Pricing: All prices, quotes, or proposals are to remain firm for 120 days after the closing date, unless a different period is stated in County’s RFQ. Any proposal that does not offer to remain firm for the required period may be considered to be non-responsive.

F. Costs: Proposers bear all costs and expenses related to this RFQ including, but not limited to, preparation and delivery of the proposal, attending the pre-proposal conference, and attending the interview.

G. Licensing: All applicable federal, state, and local licenses must be acquired before the contract is entered into between County and the selected Proposer.

Licenses must be maintained throughout the entire contract period.

H. Changes or Modifications: Any changes or modification to the RFQ will be made by written addendum. Proposer submitting a proposal based on any information other than that contained in County’s RFQ and any addenda, do so at their own risk.

I. Receiving Proposals: Contracts and Procurement will administer receipt and opening of all proposals. Proposals will be held, unopened, by Contracts and Procurement in the same condition as received if delivered prior to the date and closing time designated in the RFQ. After closing time, only the identity of each Proposer will be made public. If only one proposal is received in response to County request, Contracts and Procurement, in coordination with the agency requesting the project, may recommend entering into a contract to the single Proposer if the conditions cited above are met. Alternatively, Contracts and Procurement may re-solicit for the purpose of obtaining additional proposals.

J. Modifying or Withdrawing Proposals: Proposer may modify or withdraw their proposals at any time prior to the closing time. Requests to modify a proposal before closing time must be made in writing to the County.

K. Rejection of Proposals: Any proposal containing significant deviations from the specifications of the RFQ will be considered non-responsive and may be rejected in whole or in part.

L. Protests: Pursuant to Salt Lake County Code of Ordinances § 3.20.150, a protest in regard to the RFQ document must be submitted in writing prior to the RFQ closing date. All other protests must be submitted in writing within five (5) business days after notification of the award is posted on U3P. A protestor may file only one (1) protest after the RFQ closing date. Protest letters must specifically and completely state the facts that the protestor believes constitute errors in the RFQ document or the award.

M. Free and Competitive Selection: Any agreement or collusion among prospective

Proposers to fix a price or limit competition will render the proposal void, and such conduct is unlawful and subject to criminal sanction.

O. Campaign Contributions: The Salt Lake County campaign finance disclosure ordinance limits campaign contributions by Proposers to County candidates. Salt Lake County Code of Ordinances § 2.72A. Proposer acknowledges and understands those limitations on campaign contributions mean that any person, business, corporation or other entity that enters into a contract or is engaged in a contract with County is prohibited from making campaign contributions in excess of $100 to County candidates during the term of the contract and during a single election cycle as defined in the ordinance.
