BURLINGTON CULTURAL MAPPING

Active Living in Burlington
Donna Grandin, 2015
Acrylic paint on panel

This mural explores the theme of active living. The theme resonated with the artist as she has happy memories of raising her children in Burlington. Each of the four panels represents a memory of the artist: hiking at Mount Nemo, bike riding at Spencer Smith Park, baseball at Ireland Park and soccer at Sherwood Forest Park.

The Local Artist Program is designed to tell local stories using local artists. The 2015 program commissioned six small to medium-scale murals throughout the city. These commissions were open exclusively to Burlington artists. Free professional development opportunities were offered to assist artists with the application process and project development.
