What's on
We are seeking to commission a UK based artist / creative company to deliver a fun, family friendly projection mapped onto Chesterfields’ Grade II listed Market Hall to create a stunning display that connects the past with the present.
The projection will be showcased at an event in Spring 2026 as part of the re-launching of the outdoor market following significant refurbishments through the Revitalising the Heart of Chesterfield regeneration scheme.
This commission will celebrate the story of Chesterfield as a market town, showcasing its rich heritage, continued transformation and its future.
We are interested in how the appointed artist / creative company can embed engagement opportunities with young people and the wider community which might influence the content of the work or provide learning opportunities to share skills and knowledge.
All Inclusive Fee: £18,000 + VAT if applicable
Dates: September 2025 – March 2026
Deadline for Expressions of Interest: Midnight – Monday 22 September 2025
