The City of Wilsonville and the Arts, Culture, and Heritage Commission (ACHC) invite artists to participate in the City's Pilot Program 'Wilsonville Wrapped,' a Utility Box Public Art Program. The program will add artwork to the City that contributes to the vitality and attractiveness of the streetscape and community, foster civic pride and community identity, and bring accessible art to unexpected places. Utility Box Art programs are popular throughout the country as a cost-effective way to successfully bring public art to City Streets by using blank traffic signal control boxes, an existing piece of City infrastructure, as canvases to become art. Boxes are approximately 80" x 24" x 30". The Pilot Program will consist of up to 7 boxes. The theme for the pilot program is "Celebrating the Arts & Creativity." Artwork will be reproduced as a vinyl wrap and applied by a contractor to boxes throughout the City. Artists are NOT expected to do any work on-site. Selected artwork will be transformed into vinyl wraps that will be professionally installed. Art will cover all four sides of the utility boxes. The life expectancy of each wrap is approximately five to seven years. Artists are encouraged to interpret the theme in their own way, whether that is a literal or abstract interpretation. Artists should submit images of existing, completed artwork - whether that is work previously completed/created or designed and made new specifically for this project. Artwork should enliven the area and contribute to the attractiveness of the streetscape. When submitting artwork, artists are encouraged to consider the context of the local area, community, and the City as a whole. Artwork must be the original design and artwork of the applicant. All submitted work must be entirely conceived and created by the human artist. Entries must not be the product of or contain imagery derived from or generated by artificial intelligence. Entries that use copyrighted or trademarked images will not be accepted. Artwork will be installed in public spaces and must be suitable and appropriate for viewing by all. Artwork may not contain any representation of traffic lights, signs, or signals. Submissions that include advertising or logos, or are political, religious, or sexual in nature will not be considered. Artwork created under this program is considered temporary and becomes the property of the City of Wilsonville.
