This document outlines the goals and timeline for temporary art commissions and a professional mentoring program in City Park, Bradford. The objectives are to embed artists and arts in the park's regeneration through innovative artworks using film and media. Selected artists will create temporary installations engaging local communities and complementing permanent works. Mentees will get experience developing interventions and animating public spaces while raising awareness of the park. The program includes selecting artists, concept proposals, installation, showcasing works, and decommissioning pieces by October.
