Route 1 Ride Collaborative today announced a reopening and extension to its
Call for Artists and designers to develop an original work of art.  The
winning design will be showcased as a bus wrap highlighting the many arts,
cultural and entertainment amenities along the Route 1 Corridor, and
increase ridership as a way to visit and explore Route 1. The deadline for
submission is Friday, May 4, 2012

The wrap design, which will be highlighted on TheBus: Route 17, should
inspire Route 1 communities from Mount Rainier to College Park and highlight
the unique charms of living, working, and playing in Prince George's
County's Route One Corridor communities.  

In connection with Prince George's County DPW&T, The Route 1 Ride
Collaborative is seeking proposals for original, two-dimensional designs
that will be wrapped on the Route 1 Ride buses. One design will be selected
to be featured on three buses for a period of at least three years,
beginning in the Summer of 2012. The three selected finalist artist/s /
designer/s will receive a $500.00 honorarium for their designs. The final
selected artist/s / designer/s receive a $4,000.00 honorarium for their
design. The project is generously sponsored by The Route 1 Ride
Collaborative and its Municipal members in celebration of the role that the
arts play in the Gateway Arts District and the revitalization of Prince
George's County.

Emerging and established artists and designers are encouraged to submit an
application.  The deadline for submission is Friday, May 4, 2012.  For
