Fort Worth Public Art

OUR COLLECTION . . .

Our City enjoys a legacy of living with art that began in the 19th century with the Fort Worth Public Library’s first painting purchase – Approaching Storm by George Inness. In 2005, the works of nationally renowned artists Vernon Fisher and Donald Lipski were installed in the Fort Worth Convention Center ---- the first commissioned artwork by FWPA. Fort Worth Public Art is taking steps to ensure the preservation of the collection for future generations, even as we acquire innovative new works for sites throughout Fort Worth.
