Collaborating with STEPS allowed us to undertake a project that we had been envisioning for some time, transforming our streetscape and unifying our BIA catchment through art. We are so excited to continue the momentum ignited by this public art initiative.

STEPS has been instrumental in developing a community-led [cultural development] plan that elevates the creativity and innovation taking place in St. James Town, creating new opportunities for creative participation for the entire community.

MPP Krystyn Wong-Tam, City of Toronto

From the moment the art hit the street, the community was intrigued! They interacted with each of the pieces. Without STEPS, we couldn’t have done it.

Karlee Slattery, Downtown Tillsonburg Business Improvement Area

The projects I did with STEPS meaningfully contributed to my growth and helped connect me with new opportunities. Toronto can attribute some of their key stand-out public artworks to STEPS.

STEPS Public Art has helped us curate 10 exceptional pieces of art for our Business Improvement Association. They’re experts in facilitating the process and have excellent connections nationwide to find artists. We highly recommend them to help with your art project.

Tara Longo, Director, The Eglinton Way BIA

We were new to the process of community artwork facilitation. The guidance that STEPS provided us in working with artists and designers, as well as the overall process itself was very valuable.

STEPS provides quite a few opportunities for emerging artists to learn more about the business practices of the art world, offering many of these workshops/talks virtually. They also help artists find paid work for enriching public spaces, and helping to connect them with local communities.

STEPS understands the process of creating public art from both the artist's and client's perspectives. I was able to showcase my work to a broader audience and connect with many other artists, fostering a sense of being part of an amazing community.
