Our Vision
Public Art in Corning, NY will be welcoming for all, celebrate our people, tell our story, and
contribute to vibrant public spaces.
How do we define Public Art?
Public Art is art that exists within the City of Corning, either outside or within buildings, that is free and accessible to all. This art can be permanent or temporary, traditional or contemporary, functional or nonfunctional, historic or symbolic and may be owned by the City of Corning or by a private entity.
Corning Public Art, Incorporated is a new (soon-to-be) non-profit organization located in Corning, a small vibrant City in upstate New York. We are located in the "Southern Tier", part of the greater Finger Lakes Region. Corning, NY is home to the world renowned Corning Museum of Glass.

The Alley Art Project is a partnership between The Rockwell Museum, the High School Learning Center (HSLC), and SUNY Corning Community College (CCC). The Program was started in 2010 and includes 16 Murals!
Each mural project is inspired by artwork in The Rockwell Collection and enables students to meaningfully contribute to the aesthetics of the city connected to themes explored in the artwork.
