The Vermont
Art in State Buildings program is a public art program administered by the Vermont Arts Council that supports and promotes the work of Vermont artists in communities throughout the state. The program is a joint initiative with the VT Department of Buildings and General Services, and is dedicated to enhancing public buildings and spaces by improving their character and the quality of our working environments.
We invite you to celebrate 20 years of the Art in State Buildings Program by viewing the wonderful and varied body of work that has been collected.
