The mission of Arts Los Altos is to ensure that the arts are an integral part of life in our community. Arts Los Altos has the unique ability to work directly with artists, the downtown Los Altos business community and property owners to achieve vibrant, curated public art without the need for a municipal process.

Public art represents innovation and sustainability, reflects nature, honors history, inspires imagination and provides moments of reflection. Color and movement can be part of the public art, enhancing public spaces and defining a sense of place. It can educate the community from local lore to global information, and promote economic prosperity.
