Culture Commission, with funding from the Urban Art Program. Now in its fifth year, Beyond The Box
beautifies the city’s streetscape with colorful and interesting murals installed by selected artists on city-
owned utility boxes. To date murals on over 100 boxes have been completed by the program, which has
been very well received by residents and visitors to Glendale.

Glendale’s identity and civic pride through arts and culture, and to recognize the importance of arts to our
