Public Art Policy
The Shire of Harvey has a Public Art Policy which forms the criteria for assessment of all public art commissioned by the Shire and is guided by the following objectives:
- To identify suitable public art opportunities throughout the Shire
- To enhance cultural life through public art projects that enliven and engage with the community in public spaces
- To foster a supportive culture that allows local art, artists and the cultural industries to develop high quality works
- To celebrate and enhance the history and culture of the Shire through meaningful public art
- To promote and identify current and potential public art trails within the Shire
- Ensure that art collections are maintained, developed and made accessible to the community
It is envisioned that public artworks will reflect the place or community they are installed in and increase public awareness of the value of art and culture.
