The City of St. Albert invites artists, artist collectives and illustrators to submit qualifications for an opportunity to create artwork that will be enlarged and printed onto vinyl to wrap the exterior of two public transit buses. The successful applicants will also create or provide existing images for the interior placards of each bus, highlighting the 10 priorities identified in the Community Social Roadmap, which draws attention and awareness to services provided by the City for our community.
Two artists will be chosen by a selection committee through the Request for Qualification process. Each artist will be required to work with the City of St. Albert Community Services and Public Operations departments to develop and refine an original artwork to wrap one transit bus. Two buses will be wrapped in total.
