ART ENCOUNTERS – ROTATING PUBLIC ART
Art Encounters is a year-long outdoor sculpture exhibit that showcases a number of sculptures, in various media and styles, displayed in highly visible areas in Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree, Roxborough and Parker. The project is designed to promote public interest in art, develop community pride and draw visitors to the retail or civic areas where they are displayed. All art is for sale to the general public. The public is invited to view the art each year and vote for their favorite piece by visiting artencounters.douglas.co.us.
