“It’s the most the city has ever received for submissions, so that was really exciting,” Julie Barry, the city’s senior planner for arts and culture, told the Salem Gazette on Monday. “Fifty-nine were deemed eligible, and we landed on four finalists whom we then interviewed.”
On Monday, the city announced it had found its awardee for the Naumkeag Portrait Project: Chris Padden, a Chicago-based artist of Kanza, Osage and Lakota descent. Born in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Pappan studied at the Institute of American Indian Arts.
