Municipal-Artist Partnership Guide

This resource is thickly layered and details everything you want to know about how Municipal-Artist Partnerships work (or can work). The guide was created through a partnership between A Blade of Grass and Animating Democracy (a program of Americans for the Arts) through the support of an Our Town grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. 

"Our research centered on interviews with partnering municipal agencies and artists, third-party partners, and administrators from some two-dozen projects and programs."

The link takes you to the 'Getting Started' page, which divides into several sections or paths, depending on what information you're looking for.
