FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — Traffic boxes are being transformed in the city of Fresno.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, the first of many colorful projects was unveiled in east central Fresno.<\/p>\n
One of the vibrant traffic boxes is located on McKinley near the Fresno Yosemite International Airport and 144th Fighter Wing.<\/p>\n
It was created through the Box Art Program and celebrates aviation.<\/p>\n
Kayla Casteel is the artist behind the piece called “Sky Conductors” and has some personal inspiration — their partner is an air traffic controller.<\/p>\n
Family was an important factor while working on the project.<\/p>\n
“Most importantly, I got to be cool in front of my children,” Casteel said. “They were impressed that I did something, and it teaches them if you try hard to do something, you put in the hard work, it can pay off and it totally did, so I feel very honored and privileged to be a part of this project and the first one selected.”<\/p>\n
Artists of all ages and experience levels are encouraged to submit designs during the City’s open Call for Artists.<\/p>\n
