The Town Arts Committee issues a call to local artists working in any and all media to participate in a project to further cement recognition of Brattleboro as a renowned center of artists and artisans.

The project, Horizontal Art, will transform Brattleboro’s material assets into works of art, and is a collaboration with the Public Works Department.

The art to be seen in the sidewalks is to be original art, is to be in compliance with the Town Arts Committee’s Public Arts Policy (www.brattleboro.org), and is to satisfy the technical parameters inherent in sidewalk construction.

The purpose of Horizontal Art is to create a showcase for Brattleboro’s artists and to create an aesthetically vibrant environment for the town with an envisioned outreach to all parts of town. This is an opportunity for the residents to enjoy the process and resulting creation of public art. This project is presently funded by donations to cover costs.
