Temporary Public Arts Program

The City’s Temporary Public Arts Program celebrates the City’s artistic traditions and features rotating art exhibits in public spaces. The City currently has four temporary art locations and new pieces of art are selected annually to showcase for the community to enjoy. This is a unique opportunity to display art in a high-traffic urban and coastal environment that attracts Solana Beach residents as well as tourists from around the world. The Temporary Public Arts Program aims to highlight works of art that will be seen by both residents and visitors alike on pedestrian pathways and traffic boulevards. The public displays have featured an eclectic and sometimes whimsical display of sculptures in a variety of mediums. Prior phases of this exhibition have engaged and inspired residents and visitors with the artwork of world-class artists.
