Many civic leaders believe it?s our public art that sets us apart from most other cities in the nation. This art-friendly atmosphere has encouraged artists to move to the region, and to put all kinds of artworks into our public places. KUOW?s Marcie Sillman has the final report in our week long series "Going Public".
