Hello PAN folks,
The Iowa West Foundation is researching good examples of communities that have small-scale downtown art programs. We are especially interested in communities that have sought the creation of delightful or whimsical installations that “fill-in”
otherwise dead spaces in downtowns. We work primarily in smaller communities (often less than 70,000).
Are there any communities to which you can point us for our research? If it helps, one example of the type of art might be the Strawberry Way street mural in Pittsburgh (https://www.nextpittsburgh.com/city-design/strawberry-way-mural-downtowns-newest-public-art-piece-can-walk/).
Thanks so much for any ideas and happy holidays!
Matt
