About the Asphalt Art Initiative
Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Asphalt Art Initiative responds to the growing number of cities around the world embracing art as an effective and relatively low-cost strategy to activate their streets. By funding and advising on visual interventions on roadways, plazas, and other transportation infrastructure, the Initiative helps cities improve street safety, revitalize public space, and engage local communities.
In line with the goals of the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow, the Initiative will use the power of art to encourage more sustainable transportation options and transform public spaces in several European cities.
