Bison on the Boulevard

Call to Artists for Expressions of Interest

Toba Centre for Children & Youth invites artists (and artist teams) to submit expressions of interest to create artwork for a large-scale paint project to be installed along Roblin Boulevard in Winnipeg as part of Bison on the Boulevard.

About Bison on the Boulevard

Bison on the Boulevard will feature a herd of 20 concrete bison running west along Roblin Boulevard from Shaftsbury, lining the street that leads to the Toba Centre. This project will create a physical point of connection, bringing together children, youth, and families impacted by abuse and the community. As the public enjoys the aesthetic and artful expressions of the bison, they will learn about the issue of child abuse, the services Toba Centre provides, and the important role community plays in helping children and families heal. The goal of this public art installation is to raise awareness of the issue and of Toba Centre, spark conversation, and inspire community to get involved and show their support for children and families.

For project and submission details, please download the Call to Artists.
