The City of Missoula Public Art Committee invites artists residing in Missoula
County to apply for a public art project to create art on traffic signal boxes (TSB)
located throughout Missoula. The goal of the project is to use local traffic signal boxes
as “canvases,” greatly enhancing Missoula’s visual surroundings.

Dimensions of the TSB are generally 56” H x 44” W x 26” D. Art should cover all
exposed sides and top of the box. In addition, artists are required to paint the
concrete bases in a solid color or colors complimentary to the design. Bases
measure approximately 24” H x 44” W x 26” D. Designs should take into
consideration that TSB will be visible for short glimpses by passing vehicles and some
will have more pedestrian traffic than others.

Complete submissions to include 3-dimensional
model are to be received by the Selection Committee
no later than 5:00 p.m. ALL MODELS MUST BE
DELIVERED TO City of Missoula, MAYORS
OFFICE, 435 Ryman, Missoula, Montana.

2023 TSB locations include:

1. Broadway & Van Buren
2. Hwy 10 West – Reserve St. Entrance Northbound
3. Hwy 10 West – Reserve St. Entrance Southbound
