The Public Art Masterclass is led by Palm Springs Public Arts Commission Co-Chair Tracy Merrigan and artist Sarah Scheideman. Together they educate the Palm Springs High School Art 2 class on what is Public Art, demonstrate examples from around the world, in the neighborhood and ultimately inspire the students to create their own.
Students then design their own piece of public art and showcase their talents at a local art exhibition hosted by the PSPAC. Our goal is to one day commission a student piece for installation on the High School campus.
