What is Public Art all About?

The Scottsdale Public Art Program offers many locations in which to experience and enjoy art outside a museum or gallery. Seen in places such as the City's parks, roadways, and libraries, public art creates an identity that is both exciting and unique. The expansion of public art continues to grow and with it comes a variety of reactions and responses within the community in regards to these changes and additions.
