Let's turn the sides of downtown buildings into the largest local Art Gallery ever. Using projectors, each building could become the gallery of one artist, and selected pieces of their work could be rotated gradually throughout every evening during the 'show.' Each building/gallery could be sponsored by a local business, possibly recovering most, if not all of the costs of the project.
A three-person team of curator, graphic designer and technician could install and maintain the entire exhibit. Costs would be low and (as above) potentially recoverable. Given enough warning, artists could even be encouraged to develop art that is customized for their 'canvas.'
This is a very affordable way to dress up our city at night, promote more foot traffic in winter evenings, and celebrate/promote local artists and businesses.
