Utility Box Art Project 

​

Driving around South Salt Lake is much like driving around any other busy city, until.....you get to an intersection. You are likely to find a piece of artwork right in front of you to pause and think about the beauty in our world. These pieces of art are made possible by a collaboration between the SSL Urban Livability Department and the SSL Arts Council. The Urban Livability Department was motivated to cover the boxes, owned by a variety of government agencies (UDOT, UTA, SSL Public Works) to prevent graffitti from covering them, and to celebrate the community's creative side.

 

As of summer 2016, 28 utility boxes in South Salt Lake have become works of art.
