What an interesting concept to entertain the whole family with and it’s free. All you have to do is register for the walking tour and enjoy what our local artists are exhibiting.

From the photos provided on the websites below the community is in for a special event and kudos to the creators for developing such a unique exhibition that everyone can enjoy at a price that’s affordable.

We constantly come across stories about our city being recognized with awards (ie) most active city and it’s the constant involvement to embrace creative thinking and developing opportunities that appeal to everyone.

The dates and time along with registration information is listed below by the Richmond’s Public Art Program who is offering a series of free, guided public art walking tours in the Capstan Village area of City Centre beginning in May.

Local art professionals will lead monthly walking tours, visiting public artworks located in and around the new Capstan Canada Line Station, as well as around nearby residential developments.

Capstan Village is a growing waterfront community in the process of becoming a vibrant and active mixed-use Arts District as well as a pedestrian-friendly and public transit-oriented residential neighbourhood. Walking tour participants will discover and learn about artworks such as Lily Tree by Devon Knowles, 285 Apples by Gathie Falk, and the newly installed Breath Below by Howie Tsui.

All walks are free and require registration. The meeting location is at the Capstan Canada Line Station entrance. The three English language tours are Saturdays, May 10, July 12 and Aug. 9 from 10:30 a.m. to noon, and the two Mandarin language tours are Saturdays, June 7 and Sept. 13, 1 to 2:30 p.m.
