Additionally, we often work with the Center City Commission to develop grant proposals for their initiatives, and we routinely present to the Memphis Regional Design Center's educational workshops about the importance of public art in cultivating vibrant and dynamic urban spaces in Downtown and elsewhere.
We view Downtown as a vital and creative crucible for the culture of our city, and will continue our work towards coordinating public art projects in the area for as long as I am Executive Director.

I'd be interested to know more about the "Uptown Gateway Sculpture." Is this connected with the Uptown community in any way?
Yes, Ryan, we are in discussions with members of the Uptown community about potential locations for developing a large-scale sculpture project. Interested to participate in the conversation as a community representative? Contact Tiena Gwin, Projects Manager, at tgwin@urbanartcommission.org.
