ARTS ALONG THE CORRIDOR

Since its formation by the City of Lakewood in 2003, the Alameda Corridor Business Improvement District (ACBID) has worked to enliven the Alameda Corridor with vibrant public art that cultivates connections through the celebration of community. Exciting and detailed information on all of our artwork can now be conveniently found using the Discover Alameda App, downloadable on the Apple App store and Google Play.

ACBID’s public art program started in 2007 with the entry art feature called Flow at Alameda and Sheridan. Since then, the program has grown to include myriad sculptures, wall murals, plywood mobile murals and bus shelter murals.

Sidewalk history “icons” and traffic box wraps are yet another energizing component of the ACBID public art program. Visitors can follow our blue history icons on a walkable journey through the history of the Alameda Corridor. The story of Alameda is filled with interesting people, including farmers and ranchers, a reclusive heiress, construction workers building Alameda during the Great Depression and the visionaries who built Villa Italia and Belmar.

The ACBID Alameda traffic box wraps present a colorful collage of images from the natural and human worlds displayed on the ordinary electrical boxes powering our traffic lights. Each box features a digitally designed image, fine artwork, or photograph by a local artist. The boxes are discoverable all along the corridor and in the surrounding area.

The public art program along the Alameda Corridor features a diverse array of artistic mediums and styles by numerous artists. ACBID invites the community to download the Discover Alameda App and explore how art energizes our community.
