Vision of Public Art/ Mission Statement
Because art enlivens our public spaces, the mission of Public Art in the Town of Christiansburg is to partner with artists to generate community pride, foster a sense of belonging, and welcome visitors.
As such, our guiding principles are to elevate the role of art in connecting people and places, express Christiansburg’s dynamic identity, provide equitable access to a diversity of artists and artistic experiences, celebrate the cultural assets of our community by highlighting our unique character, and honor our history.
