The City of Mount Pearl is inviting Indigenous artists with a connection to any Indigenous community within the province to submit expressions of interest to design and create a permanent mural to be displayed at the Centennial Park stage next to City Hall.
“We are honoured to provide a space where Indigenous voices, stories, and creativity can be celebrated and shared with the entire community,” said Mayor Dave Aker.
Councillor Mark Rice said that he as well was pleased with the decision.
“This initiative is part of our commitment to truth and reconciliation and reflects our intent to create more inclusive, public spaces that recognise and celebrate Indigenous culture and presence,” said Rice.
Full details are available on the City’s website.
Submissions are due August 8.
