Public Art

The Madison Public Art Program encourages artists to explore ideas, foster dialogue, and celebrate life. The Commission integrates public art throughout the city, and stewards existing works. We grow the Madison Public Art Program through:

  • Art in Public Places (AIPP)
  • BLINK temporary art projects.
  • Municipal Art Fund
  • Percent for Art Ordinance

The Commission focuses on fair geographic distribution, diversity of artists, and art forms.

Percent for Art

Common Council approved the Percent for Art ordinance in October of 2017. This created a tool to increase public investment in art.
