Public Art
Enliven, connect, build
Public art is a community-centered tool used to enliven spaces, connect individuals, and express and define the cultural heritage, history, and identity of its community.
It can be ephemeral, permanent, interactive, large scale, tiny, memorializing, or any combination of those. Whether it’s a mural, music, or any other kind of artistic expression, the intent of public art is the enjoyment of all.
Whom we serve
- Artists seeking to add public art to their portfolios.
- Municipalities and institutions seeking to make vibrant communities using the arts (creative placemaking).
