Art projects

temporary artwork on Red Wall

STart, the Sound Transit art program, enhances transit connections by helping create a sense of place in the communities where it builds and operates.

Sound Transit sets aside construction dollars for art because it keeps our temporary construction sites attractive and makes our stations feel inviting, safe and memorable.

There aren't any current openings. If you're an artist and would like to know about future art opportunities, subscribe.
