Temporary Sculpture Installation Program

Plaza and Public Art

The City’s newest public space was designed using environmentally friendly (green) construction practices and materials where possible. The paved surfaces are made up of pervious concrete. It is nicknamed “green” concrete because it keeps pollution out of local streams, reduces flooding and replenishes local ground water. This is a project of the City of Beaverton’s Public Works Department.

The plaza also features temporary sculpture installations. Pieces are selected based on their artistic merit and sustainability and are on display for one year. The project was funded in part through a grant from the Regional Arts and Culture Council and is a joint project of the Beaverton Arts Commission and the City’s Economic Development Department.
