Art Takes a Bus Ride

SamTrans and the San Mateo County Office of Education have collaborated for close to 10 years to keep art in the classroom and provide a platform for student artists to display their works by sponsoring the Art Takes a Bus Ride contest.

Winning designs have depicted people taking SamTrans to scenic beaches, bountiful farmers’ markets, vibrant parks, the movies and shopping malls. When SamTrans customers ride the Art Bus, they are given an opportunity to enjoy this traveling art show.

Over the past ten years, the Art Takes a Bus Ride project has evolved into a wonderful partnership between transit and education.
