The Sunshine Coast Arts Council has launched a new series of Banners to adorn the streets of Sechelt. These banners can be found on Dolphin St. between Inlet and Trail and in front of the Arts Centre on Trail at Medusa. The art work is the creation of Sunshine Coast artists. Each of the eight banners is double sided showing off the works of two different artists. The “tails” that are attached to the bottom of the banners display the Sunshine Coast Arts Council logo along with directional arrows pointing up Dolphin St. towards Trail and on Trail towards the Sunshine Coast Arts Centre.

We hope the banners not only illicit visual interest, but will help direct people to the Arts Centre.

We want to thank the following 2019 sponsors:

  • Dr. Lorne Berman
  • Sechelt Dental Centre
  • Sechelt Insurance
  • Gibsons Building Supplies
  • Ocean Breeze Accounting Inc.
  • Sunshine Coast Lions Club of Sechelt
  • Backstream Physiotherapists

The banners will remain up year round. A competition will be held later this year to choose the participating artists for the 2020 Boulevard of Banners.
