Through the Art Banner Program, artists create unique banners for the lampposts throughout Whistler Village, Creekside and Meadow Park.
Summer and Winter series are displayed for two seasons and then offered to the public for purchase. Revenue from the banner sales contributes to future public art projects.
2024/2025 Summer Banner Series: Awarded.
