Call for Artists: United States Mint
Artistic Infusion Program
The United States Mint invites artists nationwide to participate in a re
naissance of American coin and medal design. The Artistic Infusion Pro
gram has been created to enrich and invigorate the design of United States
coins and medals by developing a pool of up to 20 professional artists and
up to 20 college and graduate-level art students in sculpture, printmaking,
engraving, graphic design, drawing and other visual arts, who will be
invited to create and submit new designs for selected coin and medal pro
grams throughout the year.
The National Endowment for the Arts will assist the Mint with the ap
plication evaluation and selection process. Applications should be post
marked no later than January 9, 2004.
Artists selected for the program will attend a United States Mint-sponsored
orientation on February 19-20, 2004, in Philadelphia to learn about
the history of coin and medal design, the coin-making process and upcom
ing design opportunities.
The United States Mint was created in 1792 to produce circulating coins
for the nation. Today, the Mint creates popular coins such as the 50 State
Quarters Program, the new nickel series, and commemorative coins and
congressional medals that honor outstanding persons and events of spe
cial meaning to the American people.
Application packets (which include program details, eligibility require
ments, artistic criteria, and detailed application guidelines) are available
on the United States Mint's website at www.usmint.gov artists.
Please direct all inquiries to the Mint by telephone at 202-354-7727 and
by e-mail at artusmint.treas.gov.
