Massive Public Art Initiative for Vancouver

The largest ever public art initiative in the city will be gracing Vancouver in time for the 2010 Olympics. More than $5M will be spent and International design contests held to have fantastic art pieces designed and placed throughout the city.

Several high-profile art sites will see pieces including too of the highest prices paid going for the entrance to Stanley Park and another in front of the Public Library fronting Georgia Street. Their costs will be $800K and $900K respectively.

All of the art sites will be permanent and other improvements as a part of our cultural legacy will include lighting improvements in communities that will see significant foot traffic during the games.
