America 250 Signal Box Project
Welcome to the Clark County America 250 Signal Box Project
In honor of America’s 250th anniversary, Clark County Parks & Recreation’s Clark County Museum and Public Arts Office have launched a countywide celebration to highlight the people, places, and stories that make our region unique. As part of this initiative, 20 locations across Clark County—each with its own fascinating chapter in local, state, and national history—have been selected to showcase our shared heritage.
Nine utility signal boxes have been transformed into vibrant works of art, and three banners have been installed to visually narrate these remarkable stories throughout the community. These artistic installations bring history to life, connecting us to the moments and individuals who have shaped Clark County.
