Traffic Box Art Wrap Series

City of Johnson City commissioned and installed artistic wraps on 4 traffic control boxes in and around downtown Johnson City. Each wrap design reflects the area in which it is located and incorporates one or more of the following themes or characteristics: the pollinator pathway, Langston Multicultural Centre, Founder Park festivals, music, the Johnson City Farmers Market, and Legion Street Pool. The project contributed to the City’s overall aim of helping pedestrians recognize the key places, activities, and events that occur downtown.
