Call Details: 

Each year the Lone Tree Arts Commission seeks to beautify the many traffic signal and utility boxes placed within the city through the selection of original designs from area artists.  The selected designs will be printed on vinyl and will cover the box.  A third-party design fabricator will be used to print the vinyl wraps and will be installed by the same group.  

Artists are encouraged to steer away from common iconography that is already heavily used in the City of Lone Tree and explore original avenues.  View Site Details for current cabinet wraps. Use of bright and vibrant colors are highly encouraged. The design should add to the vibrancy of our cityscape and create a sense of community and connection.   

Submitted designs must be original works of the artist and in compliance with all existing copyright laws. Because of the public nature, artwork may not contain advertising, religious art, sexual, violent or other content unsuitable for all ages and cannot convey political partisanship.

Each artist or team may submit up to three ideas.  

Review and Selection Process: 

All submissions will be reviewed by the Lone Tree Arts Commission, assessing compliance with the requirements, creativity, and overall quality of the work being submitted. The Arts Commission will consider each submission for its ability to enliven the public area and bring a unique concept to the Lone Tree Cabinet Wrap Program.  The Lone Tree Arts Commission will choose 2 designs.  All work should be finalized artwork, not conceptual.

The Arts Commission will narrow the field down and present their recommendations to council. 

$500 will be awarded to each artist/group selected.
