Submissions opened this week for the City’s fourth annual Traffic Signal Box Art Contest. “Butterflies” is the theme for this year’s contest, co-sponsored by the Richardson Rotary Club.  

The contest is open to individual artists of all ages. A selection committee will review submissions and select finalists. Five winners will be determined according to three main criteria—creativity, adherence to the theme and artistic merit. In addition to their artwork being showcased at select Richardson intersections, artists with winning entries will receive $200, a certificate, and have their work published in Richardson Today and other municipal communication channels.  

The Traffic Signal Box Art Contest aligns with goals outlined in the City’s Public Art Master Plan and was launched in spring 2022.  

All completed applications and artwork submissions for the 2025 contest are due by 5 p.m. Thursday, April 24.
