SUMMARY:City of Port Moody: Celebrate a New Mural and Meet Artist Amy Bao
DESCRIPTION:The City of Port Moody invites the community to celebrate a new public art installation\, a mural titled West Coast by artist Amy Bao. Join us at the Rotary SK8 Park (2910 Murray Street) on Saturday\, June 13\, 2026 between 11am and 1pm – opening remarks are scheduled to start at 11:10am. We invite you to meet the artist\, engage with the mural (selfies encouraged!)\, and eat a sweet treat. \nThe completed mural is the culmination of the SK8 Park Mural Project\, a collaborative initiative that brought together local youth and professional artist Amy Bao to create a meaningful and vibrant public artwork. This project was developed in partnership with the City of Port Moody’s Youth Focus Committee and the artist\, with support from City staff. \n“A key goal of the SK8 Park Mural Project was to provide youth with an opportunity to express their voices\, creativity\, and identity in a visible and lasting way within their community\,” says Mayor Meghan Lahti. “Through mentorship and collaboration with an experienced artist\, participating youth gained insight into the artistic process while contributing to a shared civic space in the City of the Arts. This project supports the City’s vision of enriching daily life through accessible and inspiring public art\, fostering stronger connections between residents and their environment.” \nThe outdoor celebration event on June 13 will be held rain or shine – please dress for the weather. As parking in the area is limited\, please consider walking\, biking\, scootering\, or taking transit to the celebration. \nIn 2024\, the Youth Focus Committee had the idea to create a new mural that reflects the theme “Natural World of the West Coast.” In 2025\, the Committee shortlisted three artists\, conducted interviews\, and selected Amy Bao for the project. Bao\, based in Vancouver\, has created numerous murals across the Lower Mainland and is known for her nature-inspired work\, making her a strong fit for this project and location. \nYouth Focus Committee members contributed ideas and took part in painting a portion of the new mural\, and Bao ran two workshops: one for the Youth Focus Committee and one for participants at the 2026 Mayor’s Youth Summit. \nThe SK8 Park Mural Project continues the legacy of youth-driven public art at this site\, as the new piece replaces The Future is Behind Us\, part of a previous Youth Focus Committee mural project completed in 2009 with artist Kris Kupskay. The new mural is a dynamic and welcoming feature within the Rotary SK8 Park and Rocky Point Park\, enhancing the space for residents and visitors alike.

SUMMARY:Public Art Calls | City of Port Moody: Deadline
DESCRIPTION:Public Art Calls\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Public art helps to make Port Moody aesthetically pleasing and interesting. It builds our community by enhancing quality of life\, contributing to economic development and helps us to celebrate our rich history. It brings art to life for our citizens in many everyday settings. Public art shows Port Moody’s commitment to local artists and provides residents with access to art from British Columbia\, Canada\, and around the world.” Port Moody Official Community Plan\, Chapter 10 \nNew Public Art Call\nInlet Park Community Fieldhouse\nIntegrated Mosaic Tile Artwork Design\nThe City of Port Moody invites Expressions of Interest (EOI) from professional artists residing in British Columbia and eligible to work in Canada to create an integrated mosaic tile artwork design for the new Inlet Park Community Fieldhouse\, located at 3024 Murray Street\, Port Moody\, BC. \nTheme\nArtist Opportunity\nShortlisted artists will be invited to propose a unique mosaic tile design to be integrated into walls in the eastern stairwell of the fieldhouse. The tiles will be square or rectangular glass mosaic tiles. More information regarding the type\, size\, and colour options for the mosaic tiles will be provided to shortlisted artists during the second stage of the selection process. \nAn artist honorarium of $1\,500 will be provided to each shortlisted artist to further develop their concept proposal. \nThe commissioned artist will create and submit a final digital artwork file and will work with City staff and City contractors to support the implementation of the approved design within the stairwell. \n\nThemes\nArtists are encouraged to explore any aspect of the overarching theme:\nInlet Park: A Community Space for Connection\, Play\, and Growth. \nThe artwork should be colourful\, playful and joyful.  While allowing for artistic expression\, the successful artist must consider the viewer’s experience both up close in the stairwell and hallway and from the sidewalk outside\, looking in. \nConcepts to consider: \nConnection\nConnection highlights the relationships formed in shared spaces—among community\, art\, culture\, heritage\, and the natural environment. The mosaic may reflect the places and experiences that bring people together to connect and thrive. \nPlay\nPlay celebrates curiosity\, imagination\, and joyful interaction across all ages. Through movement\, colour\, and pattern\, the artwork can evoke exploration and invite meaningful\, lighthearted engagement. \nGrowth\nGrowth represents change over time. The artwork may symbolize resilience and the ongoing evolution of the park as a place where people and nature develop together. \nProcess overview\n\nCall for qualifications: Artists interested in this opportunity should carefully review the guidelines outlined in this call for qualifications. Ensure you understand all requirements\, deadlines\, and specific criteria related to the application.\nSelection jury review: A selection jury will assess the submitted qualifications and shortlist up to three artists or artist teams.\nDesign presentation: The shortlisted artists or teams will be invited to present their Detailed Concept Proposal.\nFinal selection: The jury will select the final artist and design to proceed with the project.\n\nTo apply\, submit your qualifications and required materials as a single PDF document (10MB) by the deadline.
