Art Takes a Bus Ride

Since 2005, SamTrans and the San Mateo County Office of Education have collaborated 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 eight years, the Art Takes a Bus Ride project has evolved into a wonderful partnership between transit and education.

We are proud to present the winning entries from previous years for your enjoyment and inspiration. This year's contest theme is Get Out & Ride.
