Public Art

Public Art is recognized by the City of Brampton as a valuable tool in building vibrant, prosperous and inclusive cities, which are attractive to residents, businesses, investors, and visitors. The City is engaged in stewarding its current public art collection, while also engaging in meaningful placemaking opportunities each year which produce new public art initiatives, activations and interventions.

Work under the Public Art portfolio supports the City of Brampton's Culture Master Plan.
