Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

This project will expand the conversation about how public space is defined within a community, and how public art can help shape how it feels. Connections between the biz community and arts will also be made through site permission discussions. We'll be creating a walkable art hunt event that people will be able to participate in and talk about on Montiarts social media pages. Business community response will be measured by participation in the project.
