LOS ALAMOS, N.M. (KRQE) – The tunnel in the underpass near Canyon Rim Trail has been refreshed for new art. The tunnel offers spots for 80 works of art.
The wall gets a fresh coat of white paint each year to renew the art spaces. Then, artists can scan a QR code, fill out a short form, and fill in a space.
In order to keep the space welcoming to everyone, artists should follow the rules laid out by Los Alamos County Community Services Department. Those are:
Don’t paint over someone else’s art
Spaces are first come first served
Scan QR Code & complete form before creating
Create your art within 1 selected space
