Kelowna’s Landmark District is about to become even more eye-catching with the completion of a giant mural that has been in the works for months.
The mural, which spans over 2,000 square feet, is the brainchild of local artist, Jane Smith. It features vibrant colors and intricate designs that pay homage to the city’s natural beauty and cultural diversity.
Smith, who has been a resident of Kelowna for over a decade, was inspired to create the mural as a way to bring the community together and showcase the unique character of the Landmark District.
“I wanted to create something that would not only beautify the area, but also celebrate the diversity and creativity of our city,” Smith shared in an interview.
The mural, which is located on the side of a building on Bernard Avenue, has been a labor of love for Smith and her team of volunteers. They have spent countless hours planning, designing, and painting the mural, which is now nearing completion.
The project has also received support from local businesses and organizations, who have donated supplies and resources to help bring the mural to life.
“We are grateful for the support we have received from the community. It truly shows the spirit of collaboration and unity that exists in Kelowna,” Smith expressed.
The mural has already garnered attention from passersby, who have stopped to admire the vibrant colors and intricate details. Many have also taken to social media to share photos and praise the project.
The completion of the mural is a testament to the power of art in bringing people together and creating a sense of pride in one’s community. It is a symbol of the creativity and diversity that makes Kelowna a unique and vibrant city.
As the final touches are being made, the community eagerly awaits the official unveiling of the mural. It is sure to become a beloved landmark in the Landmark District and a source of inspiration for years to come.
