City of Vancouver Public Art Program

The City of Vancouver Public Art Program commissions artists and supports artistic practices that open spaces for encounters with art and the city. The program provides art opportunities of many kinds from single commissions to artist collaborations with design professionals and diverse communities.

Managing civic funding to plan, program, commission and maintain public art, the program contributes to the city’s rich, diverse public realm. Along with significant works in a variety of scales, forms, and media, the program also develops policy, and oversees and administers the public art process for major rezoning development projects.

The Public Art Program has been commissioning public art for more than 25 years and now manages a collection of over 300 permanent pieces of public art throughout the City.
