Metropolitan Public Arts Coalition [MPAC]

An association of arts advocates committed to creating community support for the installation, interpretation, and conservation of public art and in promoting excellence in design in Metropolitan Atlanta. We support public art because it: 1.) creates civic space; 2.) makes art accessible to everyone beyond galleries and museums; 3.) beautifies or mitigates infrastructure; 4.) attracts a creative workforce; 5.) increases tourism; 6.) defines neighborhoods and landmarks; 7.) celebrates civic achievements; 8.) addresses social issues; and, 9.) becomes a significant part of the image of the city. The Metropolitan Public Art Coalition is a volunteer-based, non-profit [501(c)(3)] corporation.
