Thornton’s Public Art Panels are an essential part of the commission process. Each project has a unique panel that consists of project stakeholders (residents, artists, business owners, etc.) that collaborate with the Thornton Arts, Sciences and Humanities Council (TASHCO) to ensure a thorough and competitive commission process; guided by transparency, inclusion, and diversity. Volunteer hours and duration depends on the scope and complexity of the project. For more information, please follow the link to visit our webpage.
