Letters from the Front

Canada's largest permanent outdoor art gallery, seen by approx.300,000 visitors/ year. Following economic uncertainty in the early 1980's and the closure of the town's sawmill, an ambitious revitalization program was launched. Talented artists painted murals depicting the area's history on downtown exterior walls.
Currently there are 39 in total.
