Project Details
This is a Tillsonburg and Oxford County Area competition for visual and mixed-media artists who work in 2 Dimensional mediums to create a unique, one of a kind design highlighting “What Tillsonburg Means to them” .
​
Through a community-focused Selection Panel, the Tillsonburg Station Arts Centre will select 3 (three) winning submission artists who will have their design concept vinyl reproduced to adhere to 4 circular installation pieces (3 circles per artist) that will be creatively hung in the centre of the Mall as a permanent and inviting installation. They will be featured in Tillsonburg Newspaper with Chris Abbott, featured in the Downtown Tillsonburg Newsletter, Tillsonburg Station Arts Centre newsletter and Town of Tillsonburg social media sites. The chosen designs will also be used for promotional material for the Salthill for marketing purposes of the Tillsonburg Town Centre Mall.
This project aims to celebrate the vibrant and unique history and culture of Tillsonburg and what it means to live in this wonderful community.
