ART+ INFRASTRUCTURE is a public art project focused on adding vibrant art to lonely underpasses, quiet passageways, and often-forgotten structures.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
Omaha by design's goal is to connect the dots between Omaha’s ordinary, infrastructure-heavy areas and its most desirable and engaged neighborhoods, making the passage from one area to another more enticing, safe, and even delightful. By beautifying Omaha’s “in-between spaces” we hope that neighborhoods will become more connected, residents will feel safer, and visitors will experience moments of joy in this city we call home.
