Have your say on public art in the city...
Stoke-on-Trent City Council is creating a register of public art to help inform planning decisions, related to any future regeneration schemes – as well as seeking to understand how people currently engage with public art in Stoke-on-Trent.
The authority already has a 72-strong inventory of public art installations across the city – some of which you can view here on the Visit Stoke website – and it is looking to develop the list even further – with the help of the city’s residents/visitors.

The engagement exercise will run until Wednesday 31 January 2024.
