Multiple phases, multiple stories and multiple voices in multiple public art features are coming to the Red Willow Trail system.
City council on Dec. 17 approved $495,000 in public art, including $300,000 for the project along the trails in the Grey Nuns White Spruce Park, $165,000 for an installation in Element Park and $30,000 for a mural at the BMX track facing Riel Drive.
Celebrating natural and Indigenous history
The new work or works will appear in Phase 3 of the Red Willow Trail expansion, which will ultimately connect residents from Ray Gibbon Drive to the downtown core and the existing Red Willow Trail System, according to a city report. It says Phase 1 has been completed and includes integrated features by artists Jennifer Marman and Daniel Borins.
