Public Art

Public art plays a vital role in engaging communities in the built environment, expressing artistic values to a broad, constant audience, and beautifying the spaces where people spend their time. The M has long held a commitment to creating public art, both permanent and temporary. By engaging various partners in the process, creating public art provides an opportunity for connection and investment. Around downtown St. Paul, you will find many places that have been enlivened and brightened by public art projects created by many voices from in and around this beautiful capital city.
