Visual Arts Programs at Airports
Every airport that aspires to high ratings must offer an engaging arts
program because these are offered by all of the world’s most highly rated
airports. It is also now generally accepted that airport arts programs yield many additional
benefits for airports, passengers, and the communities in which airports are located. Airport arts programs have become an amenity that airport passengers now expect,
and they serve to tether an airport to its local community.
The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's
ACRP Synthesis 114: Visual Arts Programs at Airports
is an initial compilation of practices that airport arts professionals
use for understanding the operations, management, and benefits of temporary visual arts programs at
their airports.
Supplemental materials to the report include
arts program case examples,
arts program passenger surveys, and
questions used for arts program manager interviews.
