Public Art

Art is city building. Public art enlivens our cities and creates better public spaces to gather, connect and reflect.

Art plays a vital role in creating conversations and when it is done in public spaces, it can help to help cities feel more inclusive, safer and more vibrant.

Public art can have an incredible impact on the health of our cities, fulfilling a multitude of needs in its community - from the elderly to the young, and all ages in between.

Investing in public spaces and public art is investing in the health of our city and those who live in it.
