    CALL TO ARTISTS

    AVL Forward permanent public art program

    Asheville Regional Airport has launched its Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for a permanent public art program as part of AVL Forward, the airport’s terminal modernization project.

    The RFQ invites artists and artist-led teams nationwide to submit qualifications for two large-scale, permanent installations in the new terminal. The works will anchor key spaces and reflect the natural beauty, culture, and creative spirit of Western North Carolina. Local WNC artists will be given preference and are strongly encouraged to apply.

    The new terminal design is guided by the concept of a modern gateway rooted in natural beauty. Selected artworks will support this vision and create a strong sense of arrival.

    Two installation sites have been identified:

    •  The terminal’s grand hall at the main entrance 

    •  The airside central concessions area 

    Submissions are open now on CallForEntry.org and are due by June 22, 2026. Finalists will be invited to submit proposals, with installations expected ahead of the terminal’s completion in 2028.
