While it captures Smyrna’s needs and community desires for public art at a specific moment in time, it is intended to function as a living roadmap designed to cultivate community connection, activate gathering spaces, and support a sustainably funded program, while showcasing Smyrna’s unique identity and enlivening its public spaces. This Plan is a direct result of community input, reflecting the aspirations for public art and its role in shaping Smyrna’s future. Mayor Derek Norton explained that this plan is a long time coming, and the Smyrna Public Art Committee did a fantastic job putting this together.
