Austin Named a Top Nightlife Destination

LUBBOCK, Texas—On Tuesday, the City of Lubbock unveiled a new Public Art map intended to improve community engagement with local art.

‍

The interactive map, which was created by the City's Geographical Information Systems department in partnership with Cultural Facilities, enables residents and visitors to effortlessly locate public art, galleries, museums, and theaters throughout the city. 

‍

Each point on the map denotes a public art installation or a public venue, offering comprehensive details about the installations. A search bar allows users to locate specific art locations, and a "near me" feature helps users uncover artworks located in close proximity. 

‍

This initiative aims to cultivate appreciation for local artists' contributions and promote Lubbock's vibrant arts community. 

‍

This announcement is in response to the Lubbock Arts Alliance's recent installation of the "Delightful Fantasy Flowers" sculptures, which have significantly enhanced the city's artistic landscape. 

‍

The map is a valuable resource for identifying the diverse range of art that is available in Lubbock, and city officials strongly encourage its exploration. 

‍

The Public Art Map is a component of a more comprehensive initiative to increase the accessibility of art and underscore its significance in developing community identity and pride. 

‍

The new Public Art Map is available for online viewing at mylubbock.us/PublicArt, where residents can also access additional resources regarding Lubbock's art initiatives. 

‍

This development is indicative of Lubbock's dedication to community engagement and cultural enrichment, which guarantees the city's ongoing prosperity of public art.
