On the occasion of the construction of an additional wing of the CVAD Building, a new artwork is being commissioned for UNT, made possible by the Percent for Art program. Five finalist artists have been invited to give lectures about their previous and current works. To kick off these lectures, a panel of public art experts will speak about how art makes a difference in public spaces and what it means to collect public artworks.
