Newport Art Seen is a rotating outdoor art gallery in the city of Newport, Oregon.
These sculptural works enhance the beauty of our city and are rotated out bi-annually, giving residents and visitors the opportunity to view new, fresh artwork on a regular basis. Artists receive a $1,500 honorarium for the installation of their work, and pieces are offered for sale. The majority of the sale price supports the artist directly, while a small portion is given back to our community in support of public art.
Initial installations will take place on bases in Nye Beach, at Olive Street between Beach and Cliff, beginning in late May, 2025.
This project is made possible by the Newport Public Arts Advisory Committee, Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, and the City of Newport.
