Tempe Public Art is funded by the Municipal Arts Fund. One percent of the city's total annual capital improvements budget is appropriated for the Municipal Art Fund in order to advance art in all its forms.
Tempe Public Art collaborates with other city departments to infuse art into the built environment. Examples include artwork integrated into multi-use paths, sculptural artworks in city parks, murals on city owned buildings, functional artworks like custom bus shelters and unique landmarks in community spaces. These projects allow the community to experience art in their daily lives while also creating memorable experiences throughout the city for visitors to enjoy.
