One of Portland’s newest public art landmarks – work by local artist [Clint Fulkerson](https://www.clintfulkerson.com/) - is on view at The Armature at Hanover Works, a brand-new, mixed-use community at 52 Hanover St, West Bayside. Creative Portland was proud to project manage this partnership to embed the work of local artists into Portland's built environment.

A ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate Fulkerson and his team - Gabriel McNeill and John Nelson - took place during the First Friday Art Walk on December 1st, 2023, and included remarks from Creative Portland Executive Director Dinah Minot and Mayor-Elect Mark Dion, as well as Fulkerson himself.

Clint Fulkerson Public Art at The Armature

Creative Portland, in partnership with the [Greater Portland Metro](https://gpmetro.org/) and the [Greater Portland Council of Governments](https://www.gpcog.org/), installed nine creative bus shelters  designed by local artists on and off the peninsula. Local artists were selected to install their vision using the canvas of the bus shelter for public art.

The project strengthens communities by engaging local artists and arts administrators, in partnership with transit providers, and in collaboration with the [Office of Economic Opportunity](https://www.portlandmaine.gov/2108/Office-of-Economic-Opportunity) and the [Greater Portland Immigrant Welcome Center](https://www.welcomeimmigrant.org/), for positive social impact and systems change. The goals are to encourage multi-modal transportation, increase ridership, and to promote awareness and social acceptance through art installations that utilize bus shelters as the canvas for public art on the theme of celebrating diversity and inclusion.

The Creative Bus Shelter Initiative was made possible by the National Endowment for the Arts.
