North Bay’s Public Art Committee is launching its 2021 Digital Traffic Box Initiative. The deadline for submissions is May 30.  

This initiative's goal is to strengthen the prominence of public art within high pedestrian traffic areas, provide an opportunity to recognize local and regional artists, and improve beautification within the downtown core.

Artists and designers are encouraged to submit digitally created images, high-quality photographs or scans of original artwork.

Submissions must be in a digital format and will be used to create an image wrap on one of up to 13 traffic control enclosures in North Bay. These highly visible enclosures are pole-mounted, metal boxes at controlled intersections that operate vehicular and pedestrian traffic signals.
