Bismarck BoxArt Project

In 2013, Dakota West Arts Council (DWAC) and the City of Bismarck began a partnership to transform metal traffic utility boxes throughout the city into canvases for public art. Called Bismarck BoxArt, the project was designed as a way to enhance North Dakota’s capital city. Bismarck BoxArt features high-resolution images of paintings, and photographs by local and regional artists transferred to a unique 3-M adhesive product and then wrapped on traffic signal utility boxes in downtown Bismarck. The overall theme is “Reflections of North Dakota.”

AlleyArt

A unique partnership has developed to create public art in Bismarck. Dakota West Arts Council, a local non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization, and a six-member volunteer group of the 2016 Bismarck-Mandan Chamber of Commerce Leadership Program have teamed-up to create Alley 5.5 -- an outdoor gallery of art. It will light up our downtown, spark conversation and provide a backdrop for special events, photos and more for years to come. It's estimated that up to 25 artists could be involved with the colorful transformation of Alley 5.5 located downtown on 5th Street halfway between Broadway and Main Avenues.
