Creative Broomfield alongside the Public Art Committee announced an art call in early April 2021 to artists to create work to transform ten traffic boxes into public artworks throughout the community. Over 60 works of art were submitted by artists across the Front Range, with over half from Broomfield. Through a rigorous selection process, the Public Art Committee selected nine submissions as finalists, and three works by young artists as semi-finalists for the tenth traffic box. The tenth box was selected through a community-wide vote. All ten pieces were installed by November 2021.

Fun Facts about the installation:

  • These are the first traffic box vinyl wrap projects that the City and County of Broomfield has installed

  • When scouting for traffic boxes, the Arts and History team had to work with the City and County of Broomfield streets, parks, Communications, and P.D. to get the proper approval and process finalized
