96th Ave & Reunion Pkwy Corner & Underpass

The City of Commerce City and the Commerce City Cultural Council seeks to purchase artwork or artworks for a new pedestrian underpass at the corner of 96th Avenue & Reunion Parkway in Commerce City. The artwork will stand at the corner of the future site for Rocky Vista High School, and may continue through the underpass to the other side of the parkway if budget allows. Residents of the area describe the area as a small-town atmosphere with active events year-round and a strong emphasis on outdoor living. It is known for clean, well-maintained streets, and a mix of green spaces and modern amenities.

ABOUT THE COMMERCE CITY PUBLIC ART PROGRAM
The goal of the Commerce City Public Art Program is to acquire public art unique to Commerce City that reflects community values, and to place it within public spaces for the community and visitors to enjoy. This public art will generate community pride and contribute to the vitality of the community by enhancing quality of life. Also, public art may remind us of our heritage, serve as a source of celebration, and prompt new ways of seeing and inspiring conversation and reflection. Completed in 2013, the Public Art Master Plan provides a framework to guide the Commerce City Cultural Council in selecting the most appropriate public artwork that reflects the community’s values and culture for designated locations throughout Commerce City.
