About
Launched in 1997, Art in Public Places, a Martin County Board of County Commissioners program, serves the community by acquiring works of art sponsored by the County to promote the spiritual, intellectual and aesthetic enrichment of Martin County through public art.
Currently, there are 24 public art pieces and projects on display in Martin County, including sculptures, mobiles, stained-glass windows, murals, mosaics, benches and photographs. The first piece of public art was installed at the Hobe Sound Public Library in 2001. And since 2017, the Art in Public Places inventory has increased by 60 percent!
