However results also suggest there are differences among generational segments that should be factored into our public art strategy including: – Locations for public art – What public art should accomplish for the community – Types of public art that resonate within each generational segment • Understanding both the synergies shared and differences that exist among our residents will ensure the FAC’s Public Art campaign will be successful and thrive within the county 3 3 Executive Summary 4 4 Best County Locations Top 6 Public Art Examples Total (18+) for Public Art Overall, residents
