Outdoor public art at Inspire

Inspire's courtyard is home to an outdoor mural and permanent art piece. The outdoor mural space is rotational, with new artworks featured every few months. Interested in showcasing your work in Inspire's outdoor mural space?

Coming later this fall.

Inspire's outdoor court yard will host rotational mural exhibit space. This inaugural piece is expected to be installed by early-November.

Inspired by the prompt: 'much like the act of taking breath, art has the power to ground us, to invigorate and to expand our horizons and future-thinking.'

The seven poles, each adorned with Blackfoot pictographs, represent the seven generations practice and the seven local tribes. This landmark honours Indigenous heritage, promotes community values and celebrates unity.
