City of St. George Public Art Project - Call for Artists

Working with local and Utahn artists, this project will bring the history and beauty of the dinosaurs, ancient, native and migrant peoples, and the pioneers together. Each of these forces shaped the landscape and the culture of St. George. By displaying various representative art of each group around the Arts and Events District of downtown, we will bring these forces together in a way that is ever-present in reality but new in perception.

Between October and November, selected artists will design prints for utility boxes with scenes from throughout the history of St. George. Artists will be of varying ages and backgrounds, and may have close connections to or be descended from the pioneers, from the Paiutes, the Polynesian community, the Hispanic community, the African American community, and from other relevant peoples or cultures that are important to the history of the city and state.

The designs will be printed professionally and installed on the utility boxes in November of this year.
