ABOUT OUR OUTDOOR PUBLIC ART DIRECTORY: Outdoor art abounds in Tallahassee! This guide offers a view of the iconic, historic, and quirky works of art that enhance Tallahassee's natural beauty. It includes more than 300 public artworks from city, county and state/university collections as well as corporate and community artworks. These outdoor sculptures, murals, windows, monuments and memorials can be viewed from the street, sidewalk or other public locations. Look through the photo gallery below, or visit our Outdoor Public Art Map to find out what’s near you. You can even get up close and personal with COCA’s Downtown Public Art Walk and Gaines Street Public Art Walk. These are self-guided tours that promote a healthy lifestyle and offer residents and visitors the opportunity to experience and appreciate our outdoor public art.
Also, be sure to check out the Knight Creative Communities Institute's Art of the Box Project for more fun outdoor artworks.
ABOUT THE TALL
ART PROJECT: The Council on Culture & Arts (COCA) and the Tallahassee-Leon County Planning Department have teamed up to present the Tall Art project. Over the next five years, a new system of downtown wayfinding signs will be installed to help orient visitors and highlight some of the great locations in our city. In the meantime, we’ve captured a unique opportunity to display local art in a highly visible way on the bare sign poles. The selected artworks have been reproduced in full color and printed onto UV treated, weather proof vinyl which is then wrapped around the poles. Each Tall Art installation will remain in place until the new wayfinding sign is installed. Be sure to visit these artists’ web sites and contact them if you’d like to learn more about their work and how to purchase it.
