Public Art Project Changing One Meter at a Time

A playful public art project is delivering smiles as installations are revealed in unexpected places around town. One Meter at a Time: A Temporary Public Art Project was developed in partnership between the Dallas Police Department and the City of Dallas Office of Cultural Affairs. It was designed to contribute to the visual enhancement of Dallas streets. Artists were commissioned to transform parking meters in four Dallas neighborhoods: The Farmer’s Market, Deep Ellum, Oak Cliff and Downtown. These creative interventions will be in place for 6 to 12 months.
