Artist Opportunities
There are frequent opportunities for artists and creatives to design and create public art, share work in gallery spaces and participate in educational collaborations with schools and the community.
The Virginia Beach Public Art & Placemaking Program, a program of the Cultural Affairs Department, has grown over the past 20 years into a regional standard-bearer for excellence in the public art arena. Since 2000, more than 30 new pieces have been added at sites throughout the city, and there has been a growing investment in temporary and permanent public art projects.
