The Emporia Community Arts Alliance, a project of Visit Emporia, is currently accepting proposals through March 20th, to create public art in Emporia. A Project Proposal template is available at visitemporia.com/place/public-art. The Arts Alliance is seeking quality innovative and creative proposals.

“The Emporia Community Arts Alliance is all about using the power of art to tell Emporia’s story and enhance our shared spaces,” said LeLan Dains, Director of Visit Emporia. “We’re excited to invite artists and visionaries to bring their ideas to life and contribute to the vibrant culture that makes Emporia unique.” Visit Emporia created the Community Arts Alliance in 2022 with a goal of working towards enriching and promoting Emporia through the arts. The Alliance has completed 9 projects to date, totaling nearly $60,000.
