Moreno Valley mayor promotes city public art programs
Summary
Mayor Ulysiz Cabra outlined Moreno Valley’s public art offerings — including an art loan program and a utility box art initiative — and invited artists and residents to learn about participation through the city’s website.
Mayor Ulysiz Cabra said Moreno Valley is expanding opportunities for artists and residents through a set of city public art programs aimed at supporting local talent.
"Public art brings people together and it enhances the spaces where we live, work, and gather," Cabra said, adding that public art "helps tell our story."
Cabra described multiple programs the city runs to showcase artists, including invitations for artists to present work at local events and a city art projects program that places artwork in municipal settings. She also identified an art loan program that allows artwork to be displayed in city facilities for residents and visitors and a utility box art initiative that gives local artists a chance to feature work on utility boxes throughout the city.
The mayor encouraged artists and art enthusiasts to consult the city’s online resources for details on how to participate and to view current opportunities. She said the combined programs are intended to inspire creativity and celebrate Moreno Valley’s artistic community.
The remarks were a short overview rather than a policy vote or funding announcement; no formal motions or budget figures were provided during the remarks.
