Abstract
This paper clarifies effects on community organizations and spaces after public art projects in Korea. 31 towns held on public art projects and this paper focuses on 9 towns in Gyeongsagnam-do. Not only art activities but also other activities such as events, culture schools and road improvements are performed, which are different by purposes and main actors. Main actors of 4 towns which aim at tourist development consider that residents' participation is important to be tourism spots.
