Ever wondered how public artwork, such as a massive mural or a park sculpture, actually comes to life in Utah? 🤔
From a simple idea to the finished commission, there's a whole journey — and we want to show you the map! Join us for Public Art 101, a free, in-person panel discussion designed to pull back the curtain on the entire process.
This event is perfect for artists, creators, and anyone curious about the public art process. You'll learn the fundamentals of:
🎨 The artist selection process
📝 Developing a strong proposal
💡 How to turn your creative vision into a real-world project
Hear directly from the experts who make it happen! The panel will be moderated by veteran artists in the public art space, @tooza_design, and it will include public art leaders from @slcartscouncil, @slcoartinpublicplaces (@slcoartsculture), and @utahartsandmuseums (@ut_publicart).
