if we are discussing where they fit, then artwork is not a good classification IMHO. There may be some maypoles that are considered artwork, but generally these are much more about tradition and folklore than about art.
We should rather stick with man_made than change to artwork. Amenity could be an option as well, but they do not really provide anything that’s why man_made was chosen (historic also has been discussed, but they aren’t necessarily historic).
Changing a well established tag is very expensive, there must be really compelling reasons to make an attempt. There is nothing critical with maypoles being tagged with a man_made tag[1]

[1] (to be honest, the name “man_made” has been contested as a whole for gender reasons, this view hasn’t found a majority so far, but there may be a general issue with the key).
