Calling all artists. Metro is inviting visual artists in Los Angeles County to apply for 12 public Metro Art opportunities connected to transformative transit projects serving communities in the San Fernando Valley.

Artists will create 2D artwork for the East San Fernando Valley Project and G Line Improvements. Be sure to apply by Monday, Sept. 22.

Metro’s plan for better transit includes more rail service and upgrades in the San Fernando Valley, expanding Metro’s transit system which serves the most populous county in the United States.

The ESFV Project will include 11 new light rail stations. The G Line Improvements Project will upgrade the existing G Line and include one new aerial station to replace the at-grade Van Nuys Station, which will intersect with the ESFV Project.

There are 12 total artwork opportunities.

The contract awards are anticipated to range between $110,000 and $120,000, depending on the scope and scale of the artwork locations.

Three in-person workshops will be offered in the East San Fernando Valley area. All workshops will have the same program and are free and open to all.
