Hey Community! We need YOUR OPINION!
The Avenue Initiative is taking one more step to beautify the Avenue and we need your help. But don’t worry, you don’t have to for volunteer for anything!
Murals will be painted on the electrical boxes that line the Ave and we would like your input as to what themes you think the murals should have. The Avenue is rich with diversity and we want to celebrate it. Help us create these murals to REFLECT YOU!
Send your ideas for themes to Jaimie at tjclem@telus.net or call 780.721.8417.
Watch for the murals to be unveiled at the Kaleido Festival in September.
