Summer Office Hours for Artists

Are you interested in developing a public art practice? Are you curious about the public art process? Would you like feedback on your portfolio, artist statement or resume?  Meet with Senior Public Art Manager Christine Jones or Public Art Coordinator J Noland for one-to-one conversations related to public art practice during our summer office hours for artists – every Friday from July 8 through August 26, 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., at the Commission for Arts and Culture office (1200 Third Avenue, Suite 924). No appointment required between 3-4 p.m. First come, first serve.
