Program context & project planning

How the program works

Community art linked to a transport corridor

Durango identifies Common Threads as a community project supported by an NEA Art Works grant for medians near US 550 and US 160. The city's broader collection occupies public facilities and spaces. This precedent makes community participation and coordination with infrastructure owners relevant starting points.
