Public Art Beautification Service Day

  • Date: 06/13/2026 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM  

Volunteer with the City's Public Art program via a Beautification Service Day!

SIGN UP NOW

On single days of service, volunteers meet with the City's Public Art Coordinator, who remains on site with them, to learn about the piece(s) of art, how it will be cleaned, and are provided with all tools and resources needed for a safe and successful shift.

Volunteers will hopefully walk away with a sense of pride for their efforts, a greater understanding (and perhaps appreciation) for public art, and perhaps a new friend or two of like mind. Learn more in this short reel from a Bronze Sculpture Cleaning Day. 

With over 150 unique pieces of public art ranging from murals, mosaics, oil and watercolor paintings, utility box art, stained glass, sculptures, benches, bridge railings, and more... volunteers can play a valuable role in preserving and protecting what brings color, story, and texture to life within the city of San Luis Obispo, honoring local artists' visions and creative work.
