Introduction and Background 
The Phoenix City Council established the Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture Public Art Program in 1986 to help create a 
more beautiful and vibrant city. The program is funded through an ordinance that allocates one percent of the Phoenix 
Capital Improvement Program to enhance the design of public buildings, infrastructure and spaces. In the past 34 years, it 
has created more than 200 major projects and become a national leader in developing unique collaborations with artists 
and other design professionals to build a better Phoenix. The projects range from new airport facilities, parks, community 
centers and canal trails, to bridges, streetscapes, overpasses, transit centers, recycling centers, and other key infrastructure. 
 
Phoenix public art has garnered numerous awards for design excellence, including two Design for Transportation Awards 
from the U.S. Department of Transportation and the National Endowment for the Arts, numerous Arizona Forward 
Environmental Excellence Awards, including the 2001 President's Award, and other local and national recognition. The 
Public Art Program has brought positive national and international media attention to the City of Phoenix through articles 
in The New York Times, Newsweek, The Wall Street Journal, Art in America, The Atlantic Monthly, and Landscape 
Architecture, among others. 
 
Each year, the Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture works with funding City departments and the Mayor and City Council 
to develop the annual Public Art Plan that identifies capital improvement projects in all areas of Phoenix that offer the 
greatest opportunity for artist involvement and public accessibility. The plan is presented to the Mayor and City Council 
for review and approval. The total budget for each project includes funds to contract for design, fabrication, installation 
and project administration. Art projects, like other public works, are funded in part through City-issued bonds and other 
capital improvement funds. The projects are scheduled to be in step with priorities in the City’s CIP program. 
 
Artists are recommended for projects through a competitive procurement process that involves selection panels of arts 
professionals, staff from the funding City departments and representatives of the community where public art projects will 
be located. Project architects and City staff may serve as non-voting advisors to the panel. The panels review applications 
usually submitted in response to a Call to Artists. The selection panels base their recommendations on the quality of the 
artists’ works, their suitability for the project, and their ability to work well with the community and other design 
professionals. The panel’s recommendation must be reviewed by the Phoenix Arts and Culture Commission, a volunteer 
citizen advisory board, and approved by the Mayor and City Council before artists can be contracted to begin work.

The Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture has developed the FY 2020-25 Public Art Plan with input and assistance from the 
Mayor and City Council, City residents, artists, funding City departments, and the Phoenix Arts and Culture Commission. 
 
1. Design Team Projects 
Artists on design teams collaborate with architects, landscape architects, engineers and community members to 
plan major capital construction projects. Design team projects often create significant enhancements for new 
infrastructure, stand-alone structures fabricated by the artist, or both. 
 
2. Site-Specific Commissions 
These projects often respond to the opportunities and history of a community or place. Site-specific commissions 
may be incorporated into new construction or existing public facilities. 
 
3. Purchase of Existing Artwork 
The City maintains an extensive portable works collection of more than 1,000 works of art displayed in more than 
20 public buildings and at The Gallery @ City Hall. 
 
4. Temporary Commissions 
Temporary commissions include a range of short-term projects that provide professional development for artists 
and that respond to selected locations or opportunities. Temporary projects may include new media, art 
installations, sculptures and other changing displays. 
 
5. Artwork Refurbishment 
The City must periodically refurbish public art in the City’s collection. Sometimes major modifications or retrofits 
are needed to accommodate changing site conditions or to renew the appearance of works that have been damaged 
by the elements. Major modifications funded through the City’s Capital Improvement Program go beyond routine 
maintenance. 
 
6. Master Planning 
The City periodically develops master plans to determine the best opportunities for incorporating art into public 
projects. Master plans often recommend where specific projects or series of projects should be sited to achieve the 
greatest public benefit. 
The FY 2020-25 Public Art Project Plan includes the following types of public art projects:

Light Rail Corridor Phase II 
 
Matthew and Maria Salenger (AZ) of the artist team coLab worked with City departments and the community to create a 
bus shelter at 19th Ave. and Maryland Ave. The shelter’s expanded platform and shade panels provide greater ADA access 
and comfort for transit riders.

FY 2020-25 Public Art Project Plan Major Multi-Year Projects 
 
 
Completion of the following projects will require significant funding resources over the next five fiscal years. Funding for 
the planning and implementation of these projects is included in the FY 2017-22 Public Art Plan. Funding of all projects 
is subject to City Council approval through future Public Art Plans.

have been contracted to work with the community and the Water Services Department to improve the security and 
appearances of community water facilities citywide. Other artists will be contracted for future well site projects. 
 
 
Streetscape Shade and Mobility Improvements

Public Works Recycling and Sustainability Initiative 
The Public Art Program has worked with the Public Works Department since 1990 to involve artists in the design of 
innovative recycling centers, and in building awareness of the need for recycling and sustainable resource 
management. Artists will be contracted to create artworks that expand educational outreach about recycling and bolster 
City efforts to increase recycling citywide. The Reimagine Phoenix initiative has set a goal of increasing the household 
diversion of trash to recycling from the current rate of 15 percent to 40 percent by 2020.
