Sacramento International Airports Request for Qualifications and Experience (RFQ&E)

Project Overview

The Department announced on February 1, 2023, a $1.3 billion expansion program collectively known as “SMForward” that will reshape the Airport to accommodate projected passenger growth over the next seven years. 

SMForward, which includes six major construction projects, represents a historic opportunity to integrate art into the traveler’s experience while reinforcing and contributing to the Sacramento region’s identity. When completed, SMForward will include permanent artworks inside and outside the new buildings, on the facade of the new parking garage facility, within the new pedestrian walkway, at the new Terminal B gates, and at sites in and around the new Ground Transportation Center. These new works will add to the more than two dozen artworks already gracing the Airport’s public spaces. This RFQ&E is a call for the first four artwork opportunities under SMForward’s New Terminal B Parking Garage and New Pedestrian Walkway projects.

Artists may apply for one or more of these projects.  All budgets set forth below are inclusive of all costs associated with delivering the services described in this RFQ&E, including artists’ fees, and costs associated with design, fabrication, and installation of artwork, including transportation.
