Art in Public Places Program
The Town of Frederick’s Art in Public Places Program was established by ordinance in 1999 by the Board of Trustees to provide a means to fund the acquisition and maintenance of works of art for the Town. The Program is funded by 1% of all capital projects over $25,000 undertaken in Frederick and the monies are set aside in a reserved account.
