Students across Utah are invited to enter the Utah Transit Authority’s My BeUTAHful community art competition with the theme “We Move CommYOUnity – Exploring the World Around You.”
Artists are encouraged to demonstrate how UTA impacts and connects their neighborhoods. Winning artists will receive $100 and have their artwork displayed on UTA bus shelters. Artists receiving honorable mentions will also have their work publicly displayed. Submissions from K-12 students are being accepted through March 24.
“Every other year, UTA holds a youth art competition to help strengthen community bonds with artwork,” said UTA Public Information Officer Gavin Gustafson. “Selected submissions are displayed on bus stop shelters throughout the UTA service system, empowering youth expression, making art a more accessible feature of our communities and beautifying public transportation.”
