PUBLIC ART VISION There are five guiding principles that the Edmonton Arts Council has adopted as a vision for the future of public art in our city. They are:


• Diversity in media and themes, as well as in the backgrounds of the artists;


• Challenge in bringing provocative works to the community by challenging us to new ways of thinking and being;


• Engaging, as in inviting dialogue and engagement with the artwork;


• Taking care of our investment in creative communities, conservation and maintenance, education and outreach, and


• Propelling, to encourage local artists’ work into a global context.


The EAC supports a decentralized program by encouraging partnerships that serve as a platform for public artworks and supporting other public art organizations, artists and the public.
