Incorporating an arts culture in planning finalThe Cecil Group
Most communities agree that public art adds value to a community, but how do you encourage the arts to really flourish in a community? Steps need to be taken to legitimize the art and a plan needs to be put in place for how you’d like your community to engage in their public spaces. Harriman lays the ground work for finding and growing an arts community while Salem, MA and Cambridge, MA share how their communities are fostering the arts in different ways.
Guerrilla art, also known as street art, involves artists anonymously leaving art pieces in public places without permission. It allows artists to express views to a large audience anonymously. Examples shown include inflatable animals tied to subway grates in New York, pieces of paper attached to walls in Madrid, and yarn bombing of structures in Seattle. The goal of Urban Curators is to engage the public by recognizing the aesthetic qualities of decaying urban environments and elevating common city objects to the status of art.
The City Arts Plan 2014-2018 outlines the vision and priorities of Dublin City Council's City Arts Office over the next three years.

It will do this by advising, curating programs and events, partnering with arts organizations, developing and managing assets, evaluating programs, brokering relationships, and advocating for the arts. The City Arts Officer will provide strategic leadership to deliver on these goals and realize the vision of a culturally vibrant Dublin with opportunities for both artists and the public to engage with the arts.

Civic Health: The Intersection of Opera and Society | Jason SchupbachOPERA America
The document discusses creative placemaking and how it can strengthen communities. Creative placemaking involves using arts and cultural strategies to shape the physical and social character of neighborhoods. It can drive economic development and new investments, seed civic engagement, build community resiliency, and contribute to quality of life. Some ways it can achieve these outcomes include anchoring neighborhoods with cultural institutions, activating public spaces, planning spaces, and "fixing" vacant or blighted areas. Successful creative placemaking requires partnerships between arts organizations, local governments, and other community partners. Examples of funded Our Town projects demonstrating creative placemaking impacts are provided.

Shakopee Fire Station Art and Community Center ProposalMike Haeg
The proposal suggests converting a soon-to-be decommissioned fire station in downtown Shakopee, Minnesota into an arts and community center. The center would bring life and culture to the area by serving as a gathering place, showcasing local arts, and hosting community events. It would utilize the existing spaces like the briefing room for meetings and the north and rear bays for a coffee shop and artist studios. Funding could come from grants for arts and economic development from organizations like the NEA and ArtPlace America. The proposal argues that this would work by building on the growing local art scene and successful models of other community art centers that have revitalized other small cities.
This document provides 10 examples of public art integrated into the built environment beyond traditional museums. It summarizes each example in 1-3 sentences, highlighting the location, artist(s), and how the art engages with or reflects its surroundings. The examples showcase how public art can enhance cities, infrastructure, and private developments through site-specific commissions that involve meaningful community input. Rather than simply fulfilling quotas, these projects chose artists and artworks that dialogue with the physical, historic, or cultural aspects of the places.

1. NORTH CACHE GATEWAYJackson Hole PUBLIC ART
Wildlife Viewing Platform
In collaboration with the Town of Jackson and the National Elk Refuge
Murie Family Park
2. A Wildlife Viewing Platform in the recently renamed Murie Family Park (North Park) will have a sculptural presence that
delineates it from pure functionality. The Platform will be installed at the gateway into the Town of Jackson, and visible from
a distance.
The artist is creating a unique experience for those who visit the park. Through design and use of materials, the artist will
screen some sections of the platform to create areas of immersion, areas of camouflage, and areas that reveal dramatic
expanses and showcase the stunning vistas at the site. Walking the platform will be an evolving experience.
The design will encourage people of all ages and abilities to engage with the natural beauty of the site, coexisting with the
native wildlife, swans, migrating birds, and wintering elk herd.
The installation will connect to the sidewalk and bike path, and it will be fabricated using cost-effective, natural materials
such as wood and/or non-reflective metal.
WHAT
3. WHY
The Wildlife Viewing Platform invites you on an
experiential journey from the busy streetscape
through willows waving, birds chirping, Flat Creek
flowing, and delivers you to a viewing platform
with magnificent views of the National Elk Refuge.
The dramatic passageway is an invitation to
explore and appreciate our spectacular public
lands guided by the sensitivity of an artist.
The Wildlife Viewing Platform will be designed to
meet Americans with Disabilities Act guidelines.
It will create a community gathering place and a
space to host educational activities.
Access to our public lands is imperative, to
engage future generations in learning about and
caring for our environment. The park has recently
been renamed the Murie Family Park, and this
project builds on the Murie’s legacy of inspiring
conservation through observation.
4. PROCESS & TIMELINE
Jackson Hole Public Art issued a national call for artists and a panel of local stakeholders selected Buster Simpson.
Simpson served a short-term residency in June 2016, to interact with the community and gather input on the Wildlife
Viewing Platform design. After several revisions based on stakeholder and community input, Simpson presented a final
design to the Mayor and Town Council that was approved in December 2016.
The public art will be installed during the Town’s 2017 capital street enhancement project and the schedule is designed to
align with the Town’s construction schedule to minimize impact on residents.
