PROJECT GOALS

  1. Transforming the roadway into a gateway into the future population center of the community as Pleasant Hill’s growth continues to the east.

  2. Expressing community values and heightening awareness for people of all ages who work, live or visit Pleasant Hill;

  3. Communicating the experience of the community in both its diversity and its unity, and contributing to a sense of citizen ownership and pride.

  4. Enriching the lives in our community by advancing the best of public art.

  5. Stimulating the eye, mind and spirit of the public, and serving as cultural and tourism resources that celebrate Pleasant Hill’s unique qualities, it’s character, history, pride and sense of place.

The material and structure of the artwork must be suitable for an outdoor environment, and be able to withstand local climate extremes of hot, humid summers, and cold, snowy winters.
