About the organization
NR Projects is a curatorial initiative that facilitates temporary public art installations, with a particular focus on light-based and site-responsive works. While its permanent base is not fixed, it operates globally, often partnering with municipalities and festivals to bring contemporary art into everyday urban and natural environments. The organization emerged from a desire to democratize access to ambitious, experiential art, prioritizing projects that engage with place, community, and the sensory possibilities of light and technology. Its core mission is to support artists in realizing projects that are conceptually rigorous yet accessible, often in the context of festivals that draw diverse audiences.

Taking part
Artists interested in working with NR Projects should first review the specific call for proposals, such as the Napa Lighted Art Festival, to understand the thematic and technical parameters. Proposals should demonstrate a clear understanding of the site and audience, with an emphasis on how the work uses light as a medium. Practical considerations such as durability, power requirements, and installation logistics are crucial. It is advisable to submit a concise concept with visual references and a realistic budget. NR Projects values projects that are both innovative and feasible, and they appreciate artists who can articulate their vision in relation to the festival's context.
