The workshop challenge is to establish a vision for public art in McKinney, and to imagine and prioritize the places where future public artworks in McKinney should be located.

McKinney Mayor Bryan Loughmiller visits with local artist Anne Royer as Ms. Royer's students give a plein air painting exhibition in historic downtown McKinney.

When: Saturday, Oct. 27 from 9 a.m. to noon

Where: McKinney Performing Arts Center (Ruschhaupt Room), 111 N. Tennessee

Everyone with an interest in how public art can contribute to McKinney's unique character is encouraged to attend. Space is limited, so please RSVP by emailing Mona Robinson at mrobison@mckinneytexas.org

We are seeking expertise and creativity from throughout the community,” said Linda Spina, McKinney Arts Commission Chair.
