The file contains detailed architectural drawings and specifications for the approximately 9,000-square-foot venue, which features a 167-seat stadium theatre and a 66-capacity soundproof black box theatre. The solicitation seeks a creative partner with at least three years of demonstrated experience in arts production and venue management to develop comprehensive programming across theatre, dance, music, film, visual arts, multimedia, and conceptual arts. Mandatory pre-proposal conferences are scheduled for January 15, 2026, at 3:00 PM and January 28, 2026, at 1:00 PM, both at the 54 West Church Street location. Questions must be submitted by February 9, 2026, at 5:00 PM, with electronic proposals due by February 19, 2026, at 2:00 PM. The City anticipates executing a five-year management and operation agreement with potential renewal options.

The financial structure includes a nominal annual rent of $1, with monthly operational costs of approximately $5,500 comprising $2,500 in Common Area Maintenance charges and an estimated $3,000 in monthly utilities. Successful proposers must comply with Florida's living wage policy of $15.00 per hour for covered service positions, E-Verify employment eligibility verification, drug-free workplace certification, and non-discrimination requirements. Proposers must submit a three-year operating budget, sustainability plan, marketing strategy, renovation plan with budget, and artistic vision statement demonstrating financial capacity and success in urban arts programming. The City reserves the right to reject any proposals and retains full discretion in the selection process.
