Forecast is a non-profit arts organization founded in 1978 by and for artists working in public space. Based in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and working both locally and nationally, Forecast connects artists with cities, institutions and communities to courageously tackle the vital issues of our time. We partner with decision-makers and stakeholders on arts and cultural planning efforts, and support public artists with funding, training and opportunities to create partnerships and advance their public art careers. We also help others find, select, curate, fund and commission public artists.
Forecast emphasizes access for artists of color, Indigenous and/or Native artists, and groups that are traditionally excluded.
