The Town of Grimsby, Ontario, is asking artists to submit designs for a new large-scale mural at the recently updated Major Refrigeration Peach King Centre. This project is meant to add local character to the facility following a major renovation and expansion that began in May 2024.
Artists can submit their ideas through a process called an expression of interest, which will be reviewed by a community selection panel. The town’s Recreation, Facilities & Culture Department is overseeing the search to find an artist who can create a piece that fits the modern look of the modernized building.
The recreation centre is a main spot for sports and local gatherings and was recently rebranded and expanded to handle the town’s growth. The new mural is intended to help residents feel a sense of ownership and pride in the updated community space.
