Art on Lincoln 2026: Be a Part of Lincoln Road’s Temporary Public Art Installation

Located amongst one of the most prominent pedestrian promenades for creativity and art, Lincoln Road is excited to announce the launch of its 2026 Request for Proposals (RFP) for temporary public art installations as part of Art on Lincoln: Sculpture, Installations and More. 

Following the success of last year’s inaugural Call to Artists program, the initiative now expands into a formal RFP process, inviting artists and artist teams to submit both their professional qualifications and a specific proposed artwork—either an existing piece or a newly conceived concept—for installation on Lincoln Road, that welcomes more than 10.8 million visitors annually. 

The selected work will be supported by a project budget of $75,000 and showcased across all Lincoln Road Business Improvement District (LRBID) platforms, providing extensive visibility and recognition in one of Miami Beach’s most visited destinations.

Scope of Work

Artists are encouraged to propose either new or existing sculptural works, immersive installations, interactive pieces or mixed-media artworks suitable for temporary outdoor exhibition along Lincoln Road. Proposed installations should enhance the public realm, reflect the energy, diversity and cultural richness of Lincoln Road and engage a broad, family-friendly audience. The selected artist will also be responsible for providing a maintenance plan for the duration of the installation, which will be on display from November 2026 through May 2027.

How to Apply

Submissions are accepted from local, national and international artists, and collaborative proposals are permitted, though teams must designate a lead artist or representative. Full submission guidelines and application details are available at lincolnroad.com/arts-culture/request-for-proposal/. The deadline for submissions is June 8, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. EST.

Selection Process

Submissions will be reviewed by a panel of LRBID executive board members, who will evaluate proposals based on professional qualifications, creativity, feasibility, artistic merit and alignment with Lincoln Road’s cultural mission. The LRBID reserves the right to select one winning proposal or decline to award the project if submissions do not meet program standards.
