Calling all artists: ArtSpark is back + seeking your submissions.

A project of River City Company, ArtSpark aims to beautify downtown Chattanooga by turning plain ol’ utility boxes into works of art. The first round of ArtSpark earlier this year transformed 15 previously-bland boxes into an abstract group of cats, a colorful aquarium, an inspiring + colorful handshake, an homage to bats + more. Check out the winning designs + learn about the artists behind them here.

How it works:

Artists submit their designs for consideration online.
Any resident of Tennessee or the Thrive Regional Partnership counties in Georgia + Alabama (Catoosa, Dade, Murray, Walker + Whitefield counties in Georgia; Dekalb + Jackson counties in Alabama) is eligible to submit.
Submissions will be open until Jan. 31, 2020.
Selected artists will receive a $1,000 design fee.
Designs will be selected in February and placed on boxes throughout downtown Chattanooga in April + May of 2020. Ⓟ
