NAPA, Calif., March 30, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Bringing new color, style and design to Downtown Napa, 13 regional artists will participate in a public art project this spring. In a project sponsored by downtown property owners through the Property Based Improvement District (PBID) and the City of Napa, each of the artists created an original design that will be transferred to vinyl and wrapped around signal utility boxes.

"Property Based Improvement District (PBID) members are committed to making downtown an interesting and aesthetically pleasing experience for Napa residents and visitors," said Ryan Gregory, PBID Committee Chair. "The utility art boxes provided an opportunity to turn the ordinary into something special that people could enjoy. The artwork that we selected is varied – some of it whimsical, some thought provoking while others are simply beautiful art."
