The Salt Lake City Public Art Program, established in 1984, aims to enhance the natural and built environments by integrating high-quality, site-specific artwork into public spaces. Through the Percent for Art ordinance, the program commissions local and national artists to create enduring and thought-provoking pieces that reflect the diverse social, cultural, and historical values of Utah's citizens. With over 130 permanent artworks in parks, City buildings, recreation centers, and more, the program collaborates with the Redevelopment Agency of Salt Lake City and the Utah Transit Authority to bring art to city-wide project areas and the TRAX light rail system. Through its selection process, the program ensures that the commissioned artwork is fiscally responsible and appropriate for the designated spaces.Generated from the website
