With the passage of Lodi’s Art in Public Places Policy in 2001, the City Council recognized that public art enriches the lives of residents and visitors, as well as promotes the identity of Lodi.

In 2002, the city saw the successful completion and dedication of the program’s first official project – the Sandhill Crane sculpture located at the downtown Lodi Train Station.

We are proud of the fact that Lodi is one of the few communities which continually rises to the challenge of balancing those very important quality of life issues for our residents along with being an attractive and exciting destination for our visitors.

Lodi's Art in Public Places program is a percent for art program administered by the city's Division of Arts & Culture. Our Public Art Fund is made up of two percent of the construction contract for public projects and development impact fees, grants, as well as gifts and donations from private individuals.

The Program also serves as a resource for the selection and installation of public artwork for public and private projects.
