Artists do not have to be a Centennial resident to apply, but they will get a preference point in the judging process if they are, Piko said. To be considered, artists must apply by May 14 and pay an application fee of $10. Young people, including schools and art clubs, are highly encouraged to apply.

“And artists have an opportunity to not only submit the art that they want for the particular locations, but they can also put in other portfolio work just so that people can see, kind of, their history of their work,” Piko said.

Jurors will have about two weeks to review the artwork, likely from the end of May through the beginning of June, she said. e goal is to select the nal artwork in July and announce the selections at the annual Centennial Under the Stars event. e art wraps should be installed by the end of the year.

“ e city (is) paying for the actual wraps, so that was budgeted by council for the last couple of years as a consistent program in order to bring art into some of our public infrastructure,” Piko said. e foundation’s role is to integrate the public process into the art wrap project and allow citizens to have input on the public art, she said.

“We want to have that community creativity,” she said.

Given how widespread the city is, Piko hopes the art pieces will help people identify the city and become a marker of Centennial.

“ e tra c box program offers an opportunity to spread art throughout the entire community at a relatively low price point, and it gives everybody that same shared experience, really, across Centennial,” she said, highlighting the value of art. “It’s something that really can tie a community together.” ose interested in learning more about the project and how to apply can visit centennial-art. org.
