This newly-formed Committee also assists city staff in identifying ordinances or procedures that can be streamlined or enhanced to better promote public art within city limits.

ColorFest 2021

Businesses painted logos and taglines, and residents were invited to participate in a paint by number to create pieces of art in downtown intersections.

Art has been selected from a catalogue of designs created by local artists in the metro area and curated by The Arts Partnership. The art will be printed on adhesive wrapping by Office Sign Co. before being installed on the boxes by the Fargo Business Improvement District.
