Creating, Preserving and Inspiring Vibrant Communities
The Art of Place is Prince Georgeβs Countyβs vision for using creativity to strengthen, celebrate, and connect our communities. Rooted in the belief that art and culture shape the identity of a place, this initiative brings together public art, creative placemaking, and storytelling-based strategies to create spaces that feel alive, authentic, and meaningful. Dive deeper into each initiative to learn how public art, creative placemaking, and artist development are shaping a more vibrant, authentic Prince Georgeβs County.
More Than Murals:
A Movement for Cultural Identity
The Art of Place is more than a single programβitβs a continuum of leadership, innovation, and community investment. It builds on the foundation of the Prince Georgeβs County Cultural Arts Study, our blueprint for arts-driven growth. It also guides the creative strategy for the Blue Line Corridor, where art and placemaking work together to drive economic development and cultural preservation.
At every step, public art, creative placemaking, and community storytelling come together to shape a County where creativity isnβt just seenβitβs felt.
