Arts and Visual Enhancement Committee (AVEC)
This Committee recognizes that public art has a positive impact upon our Community. Public art enhances appearance, generates greater respect for community pride among residents, increases respect for public property and promotes tourism. Public art and visual enhancement contributes to the dynamic nature of our community for both residents and tourists.
With this in mind, The Arts and Visual Enhancement Committee (AVEC) was initiated as a committee of Council by the Township of Uxbridge in 2011, to document and oversee the location of current art thoughout the Township. Further, the commiittee shall function in an advisory capacity to review and make recommendations regarding future placement of art and potential degradation within the Township.
This committee will facilitate the creation of new public art through funding, research, commissions, location and maintenance. The key component of any recommendation will deal with sources of funding for the maintenance of the art work.
