The City of Dublin, California's Public Art Program creates a unique sense of place in each neighborhood and a strong sense of identity for the City as a whole.
Through the efforts of the City of Dublin and the Dublin Fine Arts Foundation, public art abounds. Indeed, some believe that Dublin has more public art per capita then any other city in the Tri-Valley. Evidence of public art can be found in both public and private spaces. From the colorful murals found on the underpasses at Dublin Boulevard and Amador Valley Boulevard that depict the history of Dublin, to the artwork installed in the fountain at Emerald Glen Park by internationally renowned and award winning artist, Ned Kahn, to the striking metal sculpture designed by Hong Kong artist Aries Lee located at the Ulferts Center, art enhances the community.
The City of Dublin and the Dublin Fine Arts Foundation have been placing art in public spaces for two decades, starting with the commissioning of GAIA by Ned Smyth for the new Dublin Civic Center in 1990. Since then, more than 50 works of art have been commissioned or exhibited temporarily at the Civic Center, in the community, in parks
and in schools.
The award winning Art in the Parks Program features artworks commissioned by the Dublin Fine Arts Foundation in ten of the Citys parks. At the Dublin Civic Center and Dublin Library, there are seven permanent installations of art and two sculptures on loan to the City. Private art in public spaces can be found throughout the City at several locations.
