01WHAT WE'RE DOING

About Public Art, Activations & Events

Year-round commissions, pop-ups, and performances bringing the inner city to life with the people who already call it home. Programming spans street murals, performance, market days, and seasonal festivals.

From the daisy-painted Strand Street Crossing to the Bree Street Gallery and one-night festivals like Jazz in the City, every piece is commissioned from local artists and built to be stumbled upon.
