The Village of DeForest believes that art has a special role within our community. Art can provide visual appeal to public spaces, stimulate creativity, and reinforce our community's commitment to "Growing the Good Life". As a tool, Public Art is used to educate, inspire, challenge, and preserve the character of our community, the Village of DeForest is excited to announce our first Public Art Campaign: Dragons of DeForest.

To kick off our first Public Art Campaign we had 10 artists create 11 five-foot tall fiberglass dragons that celebrate our heritage, community and much more! Proceeds will support local projects that benefit the community of DeForest.

Bidding on these pieces will begin at $800.00 and the auction will remain open through September 21, 2023 at 7:00pm. At the end of the auction, pieces will be awarded to the highest bidder and upon completion of payment.
