Oxford Street and Taylor Square precinct
The City of Sydney is seeking engaging artworks and creative projects from local artists and organisations that respond to the unique characteristics of Oxford Street and the wider Taylor Square and Darlinghurst precinct.
This expression of interest includes outdoor and indoor artworks:
Outdoor works will be displayed in an outdoor public location – potential sites include Taylor Square and Oxford Square. These works need to be visually engaging, high impact and respond to the area’s characteristics. Works can be installations, static, have moving parts and/or incorporate light, sound, video and computer technology.
Indoor works will be displayed at East Sydney Community and Arts Centre and Darlinghurst Community Space. Suggested artforms for the locations include theatre, dance, performances, comedy, workshops and exhibitions.
We’re looking for projects and artwork installations that:
can be presented from 23 to 25 October 2026 in the Oxford Street and Taylor Square precinct
respond to the community, culture, history and/or character of Oxford Street
demonstrate artistic excellence
are innovative, participatory and inclusive
create unique experiences through diverse and interesting collaborations.

Art & About is a diverse program and we encourage artists of all backgrounds to apply.
We’ll provide resources and support including facilitating and hosting project meetings, access to our creative studio and spaces, marketing and publicity, production and logistics.
The value-in-kind and monetary support provided for each project will be determined as part of the evaluation process and reflected in the contract with the artist for the commission of works.
After reading all the information and documents outlined on the website, prepare all required documentation and complete the returnable form by 5pm on Wednesday 12 November 2025.
