Building on the success of previous traffic signal cabinet artwork projects, the City of Hamilton is looking to wrap new traffic cabinets with artwork by local artists. It is estimated that up to 200 new traffic cabinets will be installed throughout the city in 2023 and 2024. Artwork added to traffic cabinets is considered temporary with a maximum lifespan of 10 years.
Call for Artists

Artwork can be created in any medium but, if selected, must be provided as high-resolution digital files suitable for large-format printing. The artwork wraps are to be installed on traffic signal cabinets throughout the city. Artists of all experience levels are encouraged to submit proposals.
A volunteer jury of citizens and local artists will select up to forty (40) of these proposals for installation.
