We LOVE innovative ways to engage communities with art. And Columbus, Ohio is in the middle of executing a project just like that!

The “Sign Your Art” installation features small wooden tiles hung on sign posts around the city. The tiles are created by both professional artists, as well as Columbus residents and visitors. The annual Columbus Arts Festival gave more than 700 visitors the opportunity to paint a tile for free, and sign their work.

These signs are installed all over the city, and when pinned to a Google Map, the sign posts spell: “ART.”
