Reflecting our community's co-created sense of place rooted in a land with thousands of years of history, the objective of White Rock’s Public Art Program is to create artwork that is accessible to the public. By virtue of its placement, content and public engagement, public art shapes the environment around it. Successful community art projects can help communities change the local environment and develop a sense of pride and ownership over their public spaces.
Public Art Opportunity
CALL FOR ARTISTS: Johnston Road Cross Walk
The City of White Rock is seeking proposals from interested BC artists and/or artist teams for a two-dimensional cross walk design as part of the Johnston Road Phase 2 design project. The art commissioned will celebrate White Rock’s connection to the sea. Located on Johnston Road between Russell Ave and Thrift Ave, this highly visible and walkable location is at the heart of White Rock’s Uptown mixed residential and commercial district which looks down towards the sea. The art will add vibrancy to the area, bringing arts into the daily lives of residents and welcoming visitors to White Rock.
