Murals offer accessibility to art and creative expression as an integrated component of the physical environment, in effect turning public spaces into open art galleries. Aesthetically, murals also promote a sense of identity and belonging while communicating a welcoming and open atmosphere, and helping to strengthen the community's ability to identify with its place. In 2017, the City embarked on a Mural Art Project in an effort of revitalization and activation. View the video about this project.
