Utility Box Wraps: What does Davie mean to you

The Town of Davie will wrap digital versions of artworks on traffic signal boxes located throughout the Town. The goal is to add an attractive and creative touch along corridors by transforming traffic signal boxes into pieces of art. This beautification effort will enhance the experience of visitors and help prevent vandalization of boxes.

Artwork must have a minimum resolution of 360 DPI and address the theme "What does Davie mean to you" with subjects including equestrian/rodeo, agriculture, wildlife, nature/environmental, or historical significance. Designs should be readable from cars yet contain some intimacy for pedestrians. No logos, numbers, or words are permitted in the design. The utility boxes are located at different arterials and neighborhoods throughout the Town and vary in size, with many around 5'x2'x4' feet. Site visits are encouraged but not required.

Artists may submit up to five images with a minimum resolution of 360 DPI. This call is open to all professional and amateur artists living in Broward, Palm Beach, Miami-Dade, and Monroe Counties. Experience in vinyl wraps or public art is not necessary. Artists skilled in any medium—2-D, painting, drawing, photography, graphic design, animation, digital, etc.—are encouraged to apply. Designs must be unique and of the artist's own creation. The Town may select multiple designs from each artist. Once selected, the artist must place design(s) onto templates provided by the Vendor/Town and work with them for final approval of placement. Artists are not eligible if they are immediate family or business partners of members of the Public Art Advisory Committee or program staff. Selected artists will receive $200 per design. Artists are required to sign over one-time reproduction rights of their artwork. The Town will contract with a vinyl wrapping company to install the artwork. The selection process is managed by the Town of Davie's Public Art Advisory Committee, which will recommend proposed artwork for Town Council approval.
