Summary Explanation/Background:
The City of Pompano Beach’s current 10-Year Public Art Master Plan is coming to completion in 2026. Therefore, the City is preparing to work with a vendor for a new Five-Year Public Art Master Plan to continue the growth of the program.
The Five-Year Public Art Master Plan will continue to provide direction to staff, the Public Art Committee, and the City Commission on the planning necessary to administer the current public art program and guidelines within the City. The City will continue a public art program that will instill pride in place and create public spaces where people can enjoy and interact with art. The Master Plan will help determine potential concepts and themes that will dictate the placement and style of selected art installations. The Master Plan will lead the wise investment of public art resources in projects that respect the tradition and historic fabric of the City while allowing for creative expression that reflects its contemporary cultural, economic, and development character. Some guidelines from the current Public Art Guidelines for the City will also need to be reviewed and updated.
