Art has the ability to move people emotionally. It captures attention, creates surprise, engagement and enjoyment.

At The O initiative the art and the artists make our fountains colourful, diverse and unique.

A great way to inspire and engage your #community is with an ‘live’ art demonstration, bringing a fountain ‘to life’ through an art activation.

This type of activation raises awareness around sustainability and is fabulous at all sorts of events — community festivals, council events, internal conferences, fundraising days.

What a great way to engage people and leave a legacy behind in your community.

I’d love to see a big corporate commit to installing an O fountain as part of their sustainability plans to encourage people to refill their water bottles. Is this your organisation?

Let’s do this.
