Revealing the heart of a city through public art
Community-Based DesignA community thrives when its members are invested in its infrastructure and public places. Art Spaces reaches out to residents to involve them in shaping their future. This is accomplished through charrettes, public talks, conversation series, surveys and social media outreach.
Turn to the River, a current multi-year project, is actively engaging Wabash Valley residents and professional artists in reconnecting Terre Haute’s downtown with the Wabash River through public art and design. The focus area includes the grounds around Terre Haute City Hall and Vigo County Courthouse as well as One Wabash, a city-owned riverside property. A wide variety of collab-orative partnerships are involved in making this possible and the project offers an exciting example of the arts in action. To learn more: wabashvalleyartspaces.com
