Oneida Square Public Art & Design

Oneida Square Public Art & Design Oneida Square Public Art & Design is a social enterprise that creates custom urban streetscape art and provides jobs to those with barriers to employment.

The impact goes beyond the artwork. Oneida Square Public Art & Design is a social
enterprise founded by Oneida Square Projects, Inc. in Utica, New York. OSPA&D was established in 2015 to provide job
and training opportunities for disenfranchised
populations with barriers to the mainstream labor
market including those who were formerly incarcer-
ated, have recovered from addiction or have a
disability. The current team is using their creative
skills as former painters, carpenters and more to
handcraft pieces that enhance public spaces. The
mosaic work in particular is a reflection of the vision
of OSPA&D and its artisans – it transforms what once was broken into beautiful, functional pieces of art. OSPA&D helps our artists get back on their feet,
provides them with consistent work and income,
moves them out of poverty and provides a job right
in their neighborhood that they can get to easily.
