City of Longmont

Art In Public Places

Wherever you go in Longmont, you’ll find art.

Longmont’s streets and parks have been doubling as a gallery since 1988, thanks to a "1% for art" ordinance that ensures every major city project fuels our creative culture. Today, that legacy lives on through over 100 permanent works and programs like Shock Art, which turns drab electrical boxes into local masterpieces, and Art on the Move, our rotating outdoor sculpture exhibit. It’s a community-driven effort managed by the Longmont Museum that proves art isn't just for indoors; it’s built into the very fabric of our sidewalks, parks, and downtown alleys, keeping the city's spirit vibrant and constantly evolving.
