MenoPower RFQ for Commissioned Piece
Seeking Bay Area artists working in installation, public art, graphic design, community engagement, and/or interdisciplinary practice. Preference for artists with lived experience of perimenopause or menopause. Selected work will be used across multiple festival events and promotional materials.
Project Budget: Up to $5,500, including a $2,000 artist fee and up to $3,500 for production, fabrication, materials, and installation expenses. Recording equipment (iPads) will be provided by the project.
The selected artist (or artist team) will develop:
• An artist-designed title treatment for the festival name—a distinctive visual rendering of the words themselves (not a logo or brand mark)—for use across print, digital, signage, and merchandise.
• Two portable, participatory storytelling installations for use at multiple San Francisco Public Library events.
The installations should:
⁃ Invite visitors to contribute stories or reflections about menopause.
⁃ Encourage conversation and participation.
⁃ Be durable, portable, and suitable for repeated installation in a public library.
⁃ Incorporate or accommodate an audio or video storytelling component (recording equipment provided) in one installation.
Storytelling installations may include, but are not limited to:
- A recording “booth” …
⁃ A wisdom tree for handwritten reflections…
⁃ A participatory message wall or kiosk for handwritten messages…
⁃ A live projection of typed or recorded messages…
⁃ A menopause greeting card-making station …
(Concepts described above are intended as inspiration. The selected artist/s will collaborate with the festival producer to refine the final designs, for the festival launching April 2027.)
This menopause festival, produced by MenoPower, is a new public arts initiative exploring menopause through storytelling, humor, art, and community conversation. Launching at the San Francisco Public Library in 2027, the project aims to reduce stigma, celebrate lived experience, and create a growing public archive of menopause stories. Since 2024, MenoPower has worked to foster connection and creativity in-person and online to bring more visibility to the longest, hottest phase of life. MenoPower’s values: inclusive, humor, DIY, GenX, joy, Sade. IG: @MenoPowerSF.
Artists are welcome to apply individually or as collaborative teams. Kindly send portfolio via link or pdf with a letter of interest by September 1, 2026 to Keli Dailey [email protected].
