The kick-off event took place on January 23 at the Broward County Main Library.  It was an evening to remember. It marked an official point in the Year 2006—the moment that the County proclaimed 2006 as The Year of Public Art.

"The first time that an entire year was dedicated to anything in my history with the County,” said Commissioner Diana Wasserman-Rubin as she read the proclamation.

Throughout the year, residents and visitors can visit public art projects that are easily accessible via public transit, including Broward County Mass Transit as well as links to municipal transit networks.  Self-guided tour maps also are available at public libraries, bus depots and the Cultural Information Center or by calling the Broward Cultural Division at (954) 357-7457. 

The year-long 30^th Anniversary Celebration culminated in December 2006 featuring the official dedication of Dan Corson’s light-based public art project, Broward Light Project in Huizenga Plaza in downtown Fort Lauderdale. 

This is a permanent installation located on the corner of Andrews Avenue and Las Olas Boulevard.
