The City of Moscow and the Moscow Arts Commission announce the submission period for designs to be installed on vinyl-wrapped traffic signal boxes, with artist materials accepted now through Feb. 24, 2023. 

Artworks featured on vinyl-wrapped traffic signal boxes have been part of the City of Moscow’s temporary public art collection since 2012. The project provides public spaces for artists to share two-dimensional work and beautifies street fixtures throughout the community. 

The City of Moscow will replace the vinyl according to the standard five-year rotation schedule at five existing sites. The boxes slated for vinyl installation in 2023 are at the following locations:

• Water Reclamation & Reuse Facility, 2221 Pullman Rd.
• 6th & Jackson
• 3rd & Jackson
• 3rd & Washington
• 6th & Washington

Pieces chosen by the selection panel will be displayed for a period of up to five years. Selected artists will each receive an honorarium of $700. 

Artist 18 years of age or older who live in Latah, Nez Perce, Asotin or Whitman Counties, along with Nez Perce or Coeur d’Alene tribal members are encouraged to participate. Artists are eligible regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, marital or familial status, physical or mental disability, sexual orientation, and gender expression or identity.
