Art brings people together. Displaying art in public places and making it accessible to everyone inspires engagement and a feeling of belonging to a community.
Art represents life in many ways. When community members see themselves reflected in social spaces, they feel a sense of respect, ultimately allowing for people to identify with the place they are from, live in, or are visiting.
Public art reflects a community and its surroundings working to cultivate a cultural identity by setting a community apart and attracting people to its uniqueness. Artwork helps express a community’s values and creates an elevated sense of awareness for community members and visitors.
Engaging in public art generates excitement and ultimately leads to increased foot traffic, which benefits surrounding businesses.
