The second cohort of the county s Community Planning Lab wrapped up last month after the class spent weeks learning about urban development and design, planning and zoning, public engagement, affordable housing, transportation, land use and more.
Utah Symphony s Robert Bosworth plays one of seven art pianos that are part of the public arts collection owned by Summit County. The Summit County Public Art Advisory Board seeks a service provider who will keep a record of these works of art and make them digitally accessible to the public.

The Summit County Public Art Advisory Board’s mission statement is to “celebrate and unite Summit County residents through public art.”
That mission has become more challenging in the coronavirus pandemic because of social distancing protocols. So the board wants to take advantage of these circumstances to create a digital platform where the public can have access to the more than 20 works of art that are owned by the county and spread throughout the area, said Leslie Chavez, who is the board administrator as well as the content and marketing manager for Arts Council of Park City and Summit County.
