Description

Incorporating the arts into placemaking is not just good community stewardship – it’s good business sense. By lifting up opportunities for artists and creating spaces for artistic expression, developers can differentiate a project and add tangible value to the surrounding community that will be felt for years to come.

Join NAIOP to learn more about the benefits of art in development and what programs exist to foster these partnerships. With panelists from both the public and private sector, this conversation will showcase the value, benefits, and opportunities of creative spaces in development projects. Attendees will learn about the convergence of public art in CRE and what opportunities exist to strengthen this partnership. The evening will close with a cocktail reception.
