Public Art
The City of Greeley embraces artistic expression and encourages public art as a way of celebrating our community's vibrant cultural diversity.
The Greeley Art Commission
The Greeley Art Commission oversees the Public Art program and assists in discovering art that reflects the broad range of social, cultural and historic values that define Greeley.
The commission is guided by the Art Master Plan for Greeley, which guides and supports the integration of art that contributes to Greeley’s identity.
The art commission recognizes the importance of art forms in public places. The Public Art collection consists of more than 350 works of rotating indoor art, and more than 220 pieces of outdoor art. The collection is continually updated with new artwork as the art commission purchases several pieces of art annually.

One Percent for Art

Fiesta on the Plaza brings families from across Greeley and Weld County together to celebrate the traditions, creativity, and cultural pride of our Latina/o community. In 2026, our theme — Arte y Tradición — highlights Latina/o and Hispanic arts in all their forms. We are creating a dedicated Artistic Square, designed as a welcoming space where visitors can stroll, connect, and engage directly with local artists. The Mexican American History Project, Greeley and the City of Greeley Museums invite you to join us! We welcome emerging and established creatives whose work reflects visual arts, handmade traditions, storytelling, and cultural expression. Artists may demonstrate their craft, display completed work, and optionally sell original artwork, books, or handmade goods. Please note: The Artistic Square is designed for booth-style demonstrations and engagement rather than scheduled stage performances. Artists are responsible for handling their own sales. Applications must be submitted by August 20th and applicants will be notified by August 26th. Applications will be vetted by the Fiesta on the plaza planning committee.
