About this work

The mural is colourful and whimsical, bringing some much-needed vibrancy to the area while also incorporating and celebrating the Chinese-Canadian culture that is so prevalent in Crescent Heights. The artists consulted with Chinese elders to ensure the mural was respectful and accurately depicted the symbology of a lucky pig. An open house was hosted to show off the design and garner community feedback. Mural completion was followed by an unveiling event with community leaders and members coming together to enjoy some barbecued pig and comaradery.
