Huntington Station Banners (Town-Sponsored)

Artist-designed banners installed in various locations within the Huntington Station Business Improvement District (BID) are documented in this section of the Public Art Inventory. This project involved partnership of the Town's Public Art Initiative and the Huntington Station BID. A total of 50 banners were printed with the project slogan - "Huntington Station: Moving Forward Together" - on one side and one of 5 different artist designs on the other (10 of each design). To help support this project the BID offered local businesses and residents the opportunity to "sponsor" a banner, with each being recognized by their name printed below the "slogan"
