Vancouver Indigenous Murals

The City of Vancouver has unveiled the first of its new Indigenous murals downtown. Below is a photo of Kelly Cannell’s Sea to Sky Lightbox:

Sea to Sky on the Queen Elizabeth Theatre Plaza features imagery of wildlife and natural landscapes, acknowledging Vancouver’s Coast Salish past.

A total of six murals by First Nations artists were commissioned to promote reconciliation and relations between Vancouverites and Indigenous people.

Kelly Cannell is a Coast Salish artist from the Musqueam Nation in Vancouver, BC.
