Norfolk Utility Box Art Project

Hampton Roads artists can submit artwork for display on utility boxes in Downtown Norfolk.

This is a community art opportunity inviting Hampton Roads artists to participate in a public art initiative that will transform utility boxes in Downtown Norfolk. The project aims to beautify the urban landscape by showcasing local artistic talent on these prominent public structures. Artists are invited to submit their work for consideration to have their artwork displayed on utility boxes throughout Downtown Norfolk. This is an excellent opportunity for emerging and established artists to gain public visibility and contribute to the cultural vibrancy of the Norfolk community. The project represents a commitment to integrating art into everyday spaces and making art accessible to the wider community. By participating, artists can reach a broad audience and establish their presence in public spaces. This initiative supports local creative talent and encourages community engagement with public art. The utility boxes serve as a blank canvas for artistic expression, allowing artists to transform functional infrastructure into visually compelling installations. This is an ideal opportunity for artists looking to expand their portfolio with public art experience and gain recognition within the Hampton Roads artistic community.
