All Regional Transportation Authority (RTA} projects allocate 1% of construction costs for public art. Tucson Pima Arts Council (TPAC) administers the Percent for Art program for both the City of Tucson and Pima County Through a competitive selection process organized and facilitated by TPAC, project artists are chosen to plan and create specific art in conjunction with the design and construction phases of the specific projects. The project artists are selected by a panel that includes residents and artists from the project area neighborhoods.
Taste and talent are optional.
