If your art majors-to-be are in need of a little encouragement to reach their full creative potential, tell them to just take a look outside! Public art is as accessible as it is admirable—breaking up the bustle of everyday life with a little inspiration for everyone that passes by. Not only is outdoor artwork a joy to be around as people stroll through their city, it’s also one of many pursuits that can actually net successful artists a government grant.
Let your TXGU students know that not every artist needs to be a starving one, and give them the real scoop on how their work could impact thousands of people a day—no red velvet ropes required.
