PUBLIC ART

Public art is a powerful catalyst for all that we cherish and aspire to in Marin. Across the nation and around the world, public art is increasingly seen as a vital civic amenity. It can:
 
  • Enhance and express a unique communal identify
  • Deepen our attachment to place
  • Promote civic dialogue and cross-cultural understanding
  • Humanize and beautify the built environment
  • Enliven public spaces

Public Art Toolkit
Art in public and publicly accessible spaces – is a reflection of how we see the world. The artist’s response to our time and place combined with our own sense of who we are. Public art is a powerful catalyst for all that we cherish and aspire to in Marin.

In 2020, a Public Art Toolkit was developed by the Marin Cultural Association as part the Countywide Arts & Culture Plan to provide step-by-step guidelines for Marin County cities and municipalities interested in public art installations and programs in their communities. Read the Toolkit now on Issuu.
