Help Shape the Next Decade of Scottsdale Public Art

Scottsdale Public Art, a department of Scottsdale Arts, in partnership with consultant team Art Builds Community and Cirrus Collaborative LLC, has launched the process to develop a 10-year Public Art Plan for the City of Scottsdale.

Building upon the work done by the Scottsdale Public Art staff, the process will be comprised of 3 phases that will begin with engagement with the community. The City of Scottsdale 10-year Public Art Plan will guide the integration of public art in civic and private development that will continue the growth and engagement of this well-established program. The plan will focus on future public art funding and activities that support the City's cultural and development goals.

This multi-phase project will culminate in a comprehensive 10-year Public Art Plan, guiding the future of public art in Scottsdale over the next ten years in line with the growth of the City.
