“Public art holds the power to open hearts and minds, offers common ground, and provides free art experiences for people in their everyday lives. As we reflect on our first ten years in bringing nearly 200 artists' stories forward, we remain inspired by the ways those stories have rippled throughout our community. As we look toward our next ten years, we can create even greater impact by engaging more Rhode Islanders in contributing to creative and connected spaces where families, students, visitors, and businesses can dream, live, and thrive. We hope you will join us in this journey.”
