Public Art Committee celebrates new outdoor art gallery in Fountain Hills

Artist recognition event June 3

Posted

The Public Art Committee formulated a national call to artists to create a new outdoor art gallery exhibit for the mural wall at Fountain Park.

Following last year’s inaugural exhibit “Legends & Lore of the Valley of the Sun,” this year’s theme is “Expressions” which is on display for one year, according to a press release.

Seven finalists were chosen and their art can now be seen on the pump house wall. Each panel has the artist’s name, the title of the piece and a small descriptive paragraph.

The Public Art Committee is excited to promote this new visual experience for the Town of Fountain Hills and its visitors. The benefits of this project allows for professional art to be on display, changing every year and offering a fresh, new perspective and theme.

The Public Art Committee will host a celebration of the new art and the artists Monday, June 3, at 9 a.m. at the pump house wall.

The committee is also seeking seven sponsors for this year’s exhibit. The cost to sponsor an art panel is $1,000 which includes the sponsor’s name and contact information on a sign accompanying the art panel on the mural wall for one year.

Those interested in becoming a sponsor can call Jenny Willigrod at 602-318-9618.
