Public Art & Creative Infrastructure Producing
Bricks Public Art Producers support land developers to connect with local and creative communities, through the delivery of bespoke and locally lead public art programmes.
With a strong grounding in planning and community engagement alongside a high quality artist network, our approach is to facilitate a creative and collaborative process between land developers, architects, consultants, local authorities, communities and artists.


We believe in the civic role of artists and other creative practitioners, and that by drawing on local creative talent for public art programmes, we maximise the positive local impact an artwork can have. We are interested in the creation of permanent and temporary artworks, producing public artworks that are loved by their communities and support the creative economy of the area.
This approach delivers great reputational value for the development and ensures that public artworks are grown organically from place and people.


We also have expertise in curating creative community programmes, and producing creative and community infrastructure. This exciting aspect of cultural programming is a complement to our public art projects, and is well supported by local authorities as a contribution to the social, economic and wellbeing value of both redevelopments and new developments.
