Help us pick our exclusive 2013 United Arts Print!
Every year, the Arts Council commissions a local artist to create an exclusive, one-of-a-kind piece of art to represent the unique character of our community. Donors who give $500 or more receive a limited-edition print of the final artwork as a thank-you for investing in the arts. This year, YOU get to pick the United Arts Campaign print.
The creative team at Hartford Prints!, a local letterpress studio, has developed three concepts reflecting some of Hartford's most beloved pieces of public art. YOU decide which one wins.
