Public Art is vital for supporting artists and integrating creative ideas into public life. It fosters cultural, social, and economic value, contributing to vibrant urban centres.
The town's Public Art Policy guides the commissioning and procurement of artworks to enrich Okotoks' collection, ensuring regular consideration, collaboration with relevant Town Business Centres, and increasing community programs.
It encourages engagement with environments, accessibility, and local vitality, bolstering the economy and nurturing creative public spaces.
