Hjørring Municipality in Denmark invites professional artists to develop site-specific works that activate public space and create encounters between people. The municipality seeks artistic projects based on the specific places and people they are created for, and that can strengthen local identity, community, and sense of belonging.

One artist shall be selected for each of the two locations: Strømgade in the center of Hjørring, and the area around Gøgsigs Pakhus in Sindal. The total project budget shall cover artist fees, materials, production, transport, and other expenses related to the realization of the work. The budget is 180,000 DKK for Hjørring and 90,000 DKK for Sindal.

The application shall consist of a concept description of approximately half a page, CV, and project budget. Applicants may submit proposals for both locations, but can only be selected for one. The work is expected to be selected in late 2026, and produced and inaugurated in the first half of 2027.
