The Pickering Community Banner Program celebrates the culture, heritage and beauty of our City. The City of Pickering invites Canadian artists of all ages, or artist teams, to submit artwork (old or new) to be used for the Community Banner Program. Using a single or a variety of mediums, artists are asked to highlight the cultural, heritage, and diversity of the City of Pickering through the annual theme. 2021 Theme was “The Roots of Art”.
Up to 35 Community banners will be selected through an open call for art. Call for 2021 are now closed. Selected banners will be installed throughout City Centre (Esplanade North, Esplanade South, Valley Farm Road, Glenanna Road, Kingston Road) in early December 2021.
Selected artwork will be shown online at pickering.ca/culture. The archive will include an image of the banner, along with the artist’s statement, and location. Banners will be hung, for a period of one year. Banners in excellent condition may be re-purposed, or removed to make room for next set of selected entries.
