BTV Airport: Project NexT
The Patrick Leahy Burlington International Airport (Leahy BTV), in partnership with Burlington City Arts (BCA), is issuing an Open Call inviting artists and creative teams to submit portfolios and qualifications for a unique public art opportunity as part of the airport’s ongoing terminal renovation—Project NexT. This transformative initiative represents the largest sustainable infrastructure development in the airport’s history and gives artists the opportunity to shape the look and feel of Vermont’s primary travel hub.
Selected artists and creative teams will design and fabricate architectural wall enhancements within one of three newly constructed spaces in the expanded terminal. Each space centers on one of Vermont’s iconic seasons and reflects Leahy BTV’s commitment to sustainability, innovation, and exceptional passenger experience. The artists will collaborate with the airport and design team to integrate their work seamlessly into the architectural landscape, focusing on materials, aesthetics, and thematic interpretation. Final designs will highlight the airport’s unique location, scenic views, regional heritage, and diverse community.
Request for Qualifications open from Friday, June 13 - Monday, July 14, 2025. Learn more and submit here.
