Putting the Public in Public Art: Artist-led Consultation

A new Arts and Research Project will support the City of Hamilton in eliciting public feedback on the new Public Art Master Plan.

Centre[4] Art + Research, a collaboration between McMaster’s Community Research Platform (CRP) and Centre[3] for Artistic and Social Practice, is supporting the City of Hamilton’s Placemaking and Public Art team in facilitating an artist-led public consultation process to elicit community input on the development of the City’s new Public Art Master Plan.

To engage a broad range of citizens, the City of Hamilton is seeking expressions of interest from local artists to create innovative and inviting artwork that will facilitate authentic, in-person community feedback on the future of art in public places in Hamilton. To learn more or to submit an expression of interest, visit: Centre[3] for Artistic + Social Practice

To support research activities related to this project, the CRP is seeking an MA or PhD. student intern.  The intern will join a multistakeholder team comprised of City of Hamilton staff, artists and an Art and Research Integration Consultant, to support various aspects of this project.
