About the magazine
Forecast Public Art is a nonprofit organization based in Saint Paul, Minnesota, dedicated to advancing public art through grants, technical assistance, and advocacy. Founded in 1978 as the City Arts Council, it evolved into Forecast Public Art in the 1990s, pioneering a model that treats public art as a vital component of civic life. Its core mission is to support artists in creating work that engages communities and transforms public spaces, emphasizing collaboration, equity, and long-term impact. Over decades, Forecast has awarded grants to hundreds of artists, facilitated public art commissions across the country, and published Public Art Review, a leading journal in the field.

Artists should carefully review the specific guidelines for each grant program, as eligibility and requirements vary. Forecast prioritizes projects that demonstrate genuine community engagement and a clear understanding of site context. Proposals should articulate a thoughtful process, not just a final product. It is advisable to contact program staff with questions early, and to attend informational sessions when offered. Keep in mind that Forecast values artists who can articulate the social and civic dimensions of their work.
