Industry — Cities & Public Agencies
Municipalities
Cities hire us to write the plan, run the panel, and deliver the work — with procurement, engagement, and reporting that hold up publicly.
Why it matters
Policy and plans
Cultural plans, percent-for-art ordinances, and public art master plans.
Compliant procurement
RFQ and RFP management, selection panels, and contracting that meet public requirements.
Public accountability
Engagement records, budget transparency, and reporting for councils and funders.
Where we apply it
- Citywide cultural plans
- Public art programs and maintenance policy
- Downtown and corridor activation
- Creative economy and small business support
How the work runs

02
Proposal
A written scope with phases, deliverables, fees, and the team assigned to the work.
03
Delivery
Weekly cadence, a shared project plan, and one point of contact through completion.
04
Handoff
Documentation, training, and a maintenance or advisory path after the engagement closes.
