Southlake Public Art
Found in Southlake's parks, roundabouts, and in front of its public buildings, the City's art program helps tell the story of Southlake. Because public art is often highly visible and can be easily and freely accessed, it can educate, inspire, and challenge any people who might not otherwise experience art on a regular basis. Public art can also express community values, enhance the environment, transform a landscape, heighten awareness, or question assumptions.
In 2008, the first art pieces were placed. Since that time, many more pieces have been carefully added with the vision and guidance of the City Council and the Southlake Arts Council. The City's Public Art Master Plan explains the City's future strategy, how the Hotel Occupancy Tax supports it, and the program's rich history.

‘I Believe in Southlake’ Mural
Designed by: Missy Saunders ~ Developed by: Liz Bonham
Location: Town Square/Town Hall
Inspired by the public art displays in New Orleans, Southlake Town Hall’s “I Believe in Southlake’ Mural includes beloved staples of the Southlake community and Texas. The painting, which is estimated to be 15 feet wide and 8.5 feet tall, is the first of its kind Southlake Public Art initiative. The mural was meant to captures all the things that make Southlake unique and special. City officials hope people visit Town Square to see the public art piece and share memories with their family and friends through social media, tagging their posts with #IBelieveInSouthlake.
