MURALS
We are committed to the beautification of neglected spaces. We do this is through our community-engaged art murals, allowing emerging local artists to showcase their talent and brighten up the neighbourhood. With the help of local businesses, we create funding for materials and artist fees and give recognition to our community partners directly on our murals.
Parkside Drive Underpass
Completed October 2013, this mural by local Artist Li-Hill has revitalized this highly-trafficked corridor and brought awareness to the stuggle for space between man and nature. Titled "Fractured Space," This project is located on Parkside drive under the Queensway underpass. It stretches a massive 20 x 130 feet and has brought life to an otherwise neglected space.
