Our 2018 coin has arrived!
This year, the coin is isued to commemorate Froid’Art, our annual winter ice art display.
“This public art project is designed to get us out of the house and really look around our neighbourhoods. As a landscape artist I embrace the outdoors, it is my muse. The Froid’Art project took my philosophy to a whole new level.
I think what I love the most is the intention to get people outside; to have a dual experience of enjoying the winter air and seeing amazing art. It is very compelling, the idea that around the next corner is a new surprise. It creates an environment to observe, to forget about the daily mundane things we all face and gain a renewed sense of community. They are like giant paper weights that have the superpower to unite a community, to bring a smile to our cold cheeks, and inspire us to really see what surrounds us.
Oh, and they help us know that there is beauty in all of our wonderful seasons. A reason to get up, get out and engage”
