[ARCHIVED] Student Public Art Project - Input Needed

538A3834

We’re partnering with the Cedar Trails Exploration Center – Center for Advanced Professional Studies (CTEC CAPS) on a client-connected project to design (and build*) a kinetic (moving) sculpture for the front of City Hall. This artwork will celebrate De Soto’s history, community, and future, while giving students a chance to connect their creativity to a meaningful, real-world project; and they want your input to help shape it!


Help these students design a piece that reflects the heart of De Soto by taking their questionnaire, which covers topics like…

  • Which parts of our history or landmarks should be highlighted?
  • What emotions or values should the sculpture represent?
  • What kinds of movement would make it exciting to see?


This project is a fantastic example of community collaboration, and we couldn’t be more excited to see this one-of-a-kind art piece come to life!


*Pending formal approval by both the City Council and the Board of Education of USD 232
