Canadian artists, your next canvas awaits in the heart of Ottawa!
The Downtown BIA is proudly partnering with the City of Ottawa to transform historic Sparks Street with Canadiana Block, a new pavement art installation that celebrates Canada’s creative spirit.
Thirteen dedicated concrete panels, on Sparks Street between Lyon and Kent, will each represent one of Canada’s 10 provinces and 3 territories, forming a vibrant tapestry of national culture and identity.
We’re inviting professional artists and artist collectives with experience in public or street art to bring this vision to life.
Ready to make your mark? Apply now on the City of Ottawa page below and be part of a landmark celebration of Canadian creativity.
Deadline to apply: December 8, 2025 at 12:00pm (noon) EST.
