1% FOR ART

By earmarking 1% of its construction budget and leveraging that with private funding sources, homeWORD has created a unique system that allows art to be an integral part of housing development. The process includes soliciting local and regional artists to submit proposals and a community artist selection, resulting in amazing art for residents and the community to enjoy. The goal of our innovative 1% for Art program is to support the arts community and demonstrate how a commitment to including art within the design of housing fosters a rich and vibrant urban fabric.

After the success of our Gold Dust development in Missoula, the City Council passed a resolution supporting 1% for Art in all public buildings in Missoula, replicating homeWORD’s support of and belief in local art installations within the urban corridor.

Our 1% for Art program has been a part of the following developments:
Orchard Gardens: Art by Jason Gutzmer

The Acme: Art by Noellyn Pepos and Dan Radven
The Gold Dust: Art by Jennifer Reifsneider and Kevin Corra
