Community Engaged Public Art

We implement public art projects that involve the community from start to finish. With a commitment to building shared ownership of public spaces, we’ll work together to create spaces that reflect the community’s values and history while opening dialogue to address neighborhood challenges while shaping a shared future. These projects typically involve some form of community engagement and workshopping with community members to design artwork that is authentic to your space.
