Posted by admin on January 8th, 2010 and filed under community arts projects | No Comments »

The Mackay Creek Community Art Project is a North Shore Streamkeepers initiative authored by artist Ron den Daas, supported by North Shore Fish and Game Club, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, the City and District of North Vancouver, and funded by The North Vancouver Office of Cultural Affairs, The Pacific Salmon Foundation and the City of North Vancouver.

The Project intents to encourage the community to participate in habitat restoration events and in a multi-cultural community art project with the aim to create awareness of sustainable environmental practices in North Shore Watersheds and underline these values with the creation of a community public art project. Workshops will be held to develop ecosystem-related images and concepts that will be used to create an installation/mural on an existing site in Heywood Park. The created artwork will be a symbol that supports the concept of protecting the long-term health of the Mackay Creek ecosystem.
