Call for Entries – 2025 Storm Drain Public Art Project

The City of Lubbock and Civic Lubbock, Inc. are currently accepting entries for the third Storm Drain Art Project. This project is part of the City’s continuing education and outreach efforts to help citizens understand that stormwater flows untreated into our local waterways, and that everyone has a role in helping to protect water quality, stream habitat and aquatic wildlife. This year’s theme “It All Flows Together” is a reminder that pollution left in any part of the storm drainage system will flow together with stormwater into the drain, ending up in our playas and the Yellow House and Blackwater draws. Submissions must depict the theme.

Deadline to submit is Friday, April 25, 2025. After submissions are received, four artists will be selected to paint murals on the storm drains at the intersection of 13th Street and Texas Avenue starting June 2. The artists’ work will be part of the June First Friday Art Trail on June 6.

Artist applications, more information about the project and selection process can be found at mylubbock.us/StormDrainArtProject.
