ABOUT AIPP
The Rockland County Art in Public Places Committee – a group of 11 local volunteers including artists, art historians, architects, conservators and arts administrators – commissions, selects, places and preserves site-specific works of art in a variety of media.
For over 30 years, AIPP has integrated art with architecture and the environment to enhance public spaces. The committee is supported by the Percent for Art Law which provides that funds from certain county construction projects be allocated for the acquisition of unique works of art in public sites throughout Rockland County.
