Art can be a powerful vehicle for communities. The Public Arts Study is a study that was initiated by the City of Rochester and the Renaissance 2010 Plan to assemble data on Public Arts Programs across the United States and to look at their feasibility and benefit to their respective communities.

 

This study provides arts and cultural councils, local officials, planners, citizens and other interested or involved stakeholders with the information necessary to understand the aesthetic enhancement Public Art can offer to concrete building facades and sterile streetscapes in metropolitan settings.

 

The end result is a compilation of information and data that addresses and supports Public Art as a catalyst for economic development and community revitalization, specifically drafted for the Greater Rochester area. In effect, The Public Arts Study serves as a guide for those actively supporting Arts and Culture, who will ultimately take the vision and translate that into reality.

 

If you are interested in learning more about the study contact the Arts and Cultural Council of Greater Rochester.
