Increase support for the new Arts Initiative. Increase awareness of the positive impact of the arts. Identify future potential public art sites. Collect feedback at unveiling event and from social media. Work with local businesses to collect data on arts traffic. Hold follow-up event to get public input on possible future art sites.
