Art & Community Landscapes/Overview
Program Overview
Art & Community Landscapes (ACL) is a partnership of New England Foundation for the Arts (NEFA), the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and National Park Service (NPS).
ACL supports site-based public art as a catalyst for increased environmental awareness and stewardship. The program addresses the natural environment through site-specific art projects that may include temporary or permanent art installations, exhibitions, interpretive media, festivals, or other works informed by the site and community in which the project is located.
Project sites and partner organizations are pre-selected to work closely with an artist or artist team for one year or longer. Together, the artist and partner organization develop and implement a publicly accessible project that inspires greater community involvement in protecting and enhancing the natural environment.
Program Goals:
• Support artists to work with community-based collaborators to stimulate and advance environmental awareness through the process of experiencing or making art.
• Bring diverse community members together to participate in site-based art projects that address local and regional environmental concerns.
• Support cross-disciplinary approaches to the creative process that are mutually informative and may elicit new outcomes and models of partnership.
How are Projects Sites Selected?
Art & Community Landscapes project sites are pre-selected through a Request for Proposal process in collaboration with the National Park Service and local community art and environment advocacy organizations. Project sites are selected by a panel including representatives from the fields of art, environment, community building and neighborhood development as well as Art & Community Landscapes program and partner staff.
Projects and/or sites external to the ACL program are not eligible for funding.
2005-2006 Projects:
• Allston-Brighton Lincoln Street Green Strip, Boston, MA
• RiverPlace on the Schuylkill River Water Trail, Reading, PA
