Public art in Olathe is an amenity that helps build the overall identity of the city, activates public spaces, and connects people to the community.

Olathe Public Art Master Plan 

Permanent Sculpture Exhibit

Sculptures are purchased and displayed throughout the Olathe community. There are currently 25 permanent sculpture installations throughout Olathe. 

Rotating Olathe Outdoor Sculpture Series 

Sculptures are selected and displayed throughout Olathe for one year. The sculptures are on loan for a stipend amount from artists throughout the country. 

The 2026 Sculpture Exhibit is currently on display. The exhibit was juried by members of Olathe's Public Art Committee.

Take a self-guided tour of the Sculpture Exhibit Sites using our interactive map, featuring images and locations for each sculpture.
