Cal Poly Campus Beautification
Initiative:
Utility Art Box Project
Cal Poly is spearheading an effort to beautify the
campus through the transformation of utility boxes and similar utility infrastructure
into canvases for works of public art to enhance the vibrancy of campus,
showcase local talent, and deter graffiti. The Utility Box Art Project will
provide an opportunity to introduce themes to campus, create a sense of place
and identity, and inspire thought. It will also be a chance to showcase
artistic talent and encourage the Cal Poly community to engage with their
surroundings. The Utility Box Art Project is a fun and unique opportunity for
Cal Poly students, faculty, staff and community members to add their creative
touches to the campus landscape.
Applications are now being accepted. Students, faculty, staff and community
members are invited to submit an application via email to: af@calpoly.edu by February 15, 2023. Selected artists will be notified in March
2023 and will receive a $250 Amazon gift card to cover material costs. The Utility Box Art Project guidelines and
application can be found here.
