Check Out the Public Art by GuthrieColin
Spokane has made a very conscious effort to beautify its city with public art and parks. In Riverfront Park alone I saw at least 6 pieces of art. In 1981 the city enacted a ?Percent for art? ordinance that made 1% of construction costs be spent purchasing public artwork.The result of their work has made for many pieces of artwork, some may seem a little unusual but at least one should be interesting to everyone. The artwork varies from a Native American Totem Pole to a sculpture of people running a marathon to a bus sized Radio Flyer complete with a set of stairs and a slide.
