Ohio Percent for Art Program
About the Program:
The
Ohio Legislature recognized the state’s responsibility to foster
culture and the arts and to encourage the development of artists and craftspeople.
The result of this was Ohio’s Percent for Art legislation, which
became effective July 1, 1990. The legislation provides funds for the
acquisition, commissioning and installation of works of art for new or
renovated public buildings with appropriations of more than $4 million.
For these projects the law provides that one percent of the total appropriation
will be allocated for the acquisition, commissioning and installation
of art work. Since the legislation went into effect, more than 100 projects
have been completed. The completed projects have brought public art into
many areas of the state. Major cities as well as small communities have
benefited from the program.
