Wolfs Lane Park is a five-acre village park in Pelham, just north of New York City, and the art centre places temporary work there for three to six months at a time — long enough for a piece to become part of local life rather than an event. The artist receives a stipend that also covers at least one community engagement, publicity through local media, the centre's 5,000-strong mailing list and website, and practical help with installation.

Open to US-based artists. Proposals must be site-specific and account for the scale, landscape and everyday use of a five-acre public park; the work must survive three months of New York weather. Artists transport, install and de-install the work with the centre's assistance, and the stipend includes at least one educational community engagement. Selection looks at creativity, interactivity, structural integrity and sustainability.
