At the Neighborhood Scale

  1. Think. How do you want your neighborhood to look? What does art mean to you, and how does it show up in your neighborhood?
  2. Plan. Collaborate with The Arts Commission to create a plan for art in your neighbohood. This could range from murals to park designs to vacant lot clean ups.
  3. Act. Start incorporating creativity into your daily life. Get involved with arts and culture organizations and make the extra effort to support pleasing designs in your neighborhood.
  4. Maintain. Read and get involved with the Toledo Strategic Plan for Arts and Culture. Create lasting changes and maintain the quality of art projects for years to come.
  5. ​Go Beyond. 
  • ​​​Create a public art installation that reflects your neighborhood. Contact The Arts Commission for assistance. 
  • Use community-based artists and neighborhood contributions to design your artwork.
  • Identify ways you could be making more use of vacant lots. Determine how they could enhance the community.
  • Strengthen neighborhood groups to support and advocate for neighborhood-wide needs.
