The City of Richardson and the Richardson Kiwanis Club are hosting the second annual Traffic Signal Box Art Contest. The contest will select five original designs that will be featured as vinyl wraps on traffic signal boxes at key intersections throughout the community. The contest is open to individual artists residing in the city or students attending a school located within Richardson. In addition to beautifying and colorfully enhancing city streetscapes, the artwork will also showcase local Richardson artists in a new way and further a sense of community pride.
Winners will be determined according to three main criteria—creativity, adherence to the City of Richardson 150th Anniversary theme and artistic merit—and each selected artist will receive a $200 stipend, a plaque, and have their work featured in Richardson Today and other municipal communications channels.
All completed applications and artwork submissions are due by Friday, April 28 no later than 5 p.m.
