Public Art Programs

This past week we discussed some of the Public Art Programs that we had to research outside of class. What I learned was that there are still communities that want to be involved with the Arts. This makes me so happy because I come from a community that tries to do public art programs, but simply due to budget cuts they go un noticed. There is also the discussion that if you plan to become an artist then you will never have a job. For me to transition from that type of environment into Sarasota, it was a major difference. This community is so involved in the arts and loves for the public to participate. This brings the community together and spreads the art. There needs to be more communities like this out there.
