In fact, that's the first of our three reasons for creating Uproar:
The first Uproar Festival of Public Art took place during summer 2023, with support from our municipalities, community organizations, and a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Uproar featured sixty bold, high-impact, outdoor works of art showcased throughout the downtown communities of Chapel Hill, Carrboro, and Hillsborough, and cash prizes were awarded based on public voting and a jury panel of experts.
Uproar was a project four years in the making. Born from a desire to showcase our community through art and the arts, Uproar has become not only the first public art festival of its kind for Orange County, but in the state of North Carolina.
