Uptown Box Art Project 2026 – Community Celebration

Join us as we celebrate the Uptown Box Art Project, an initiative that brings art, community, and placemaking together in the heart of the city.
This annual project highlights the importance of public art in shaping inclusive, creative, and welcoming spaces. Through the transformation of everyday infrastructure into works of art, local artists and youth contribute to a shared vision of community identity and connection.
Come enjoy an afternoon of art, community, and celebration as we showcase newly painted traffic boxes and the creative talent behind them.
Thanks to the Saint John Community Arts Board for their valued support of this project and event.
