Call to Artists and Designers
**********************************************************
ORLO invites artists and creative designers to offer proposals for
imaginative engagement with Ross Island as it is restored and brought
back
into the city's natural and cultural life.

The restoration of Ross Island offers a unique opportunity to explore
how
natural and cultural values can be powerfully linked together through
the
integration of art, ecology, and design.
