In this hour-long presentation, longtime public artist and educator Laurel True will present several case studies that highlight the intersection of creative placemaking and community engagement in the public sphere.
Laurel will show examples of mosaic murals and architectural projects she and her teams have created that demonstrate various approaches to design development, planning, organization, and execution of public work.
Webinar participants will learn about aspects of working with civic agencies, percent-for-art programs, nonprofits, and commercial clients to create mosaic mural projects that foster mutual benefit for participants, stakeholders, and larger communities.
Laurel will also touch on:
• Essential aspects of the application, proposal, and creation process for public projects
• Understanding best practices and budget considerations for public work
• Relationship building
• Balancing the concrete stuff with inspiration, fun, and fulfillment
