Islington Mosaic

Heritage Murals Project

With a partnership between the Heritage Etobicoke Foundation,
Village of Islington Business Improvement Area (BIA)
and Toronto Economic Development,
the Islington Mosaic is a murals project which celebrates the natural,
human and architectural heritage of Islington Village.

Conceived as part of a revitalization strategy,
the project's mandate is to create a visual  legacy for Islington
by commemorating our shared community history its defining moments,
rhythm of life, changing workforce,
how we looked and what we did for fun through the years.

By developing heritage-inspired murals on the sides of area buildings on Dundas Street West
from Islington to Kipling, project organizers are using the creation of public art
as a community-building tool.

The ultimate goal is to turn old Islington Village into an outdoor art gallery.

There are more than twenty mural sites in Islington.

The original target wass to have five large scale murals in place by fall 2007.

Now, at the end of 2008 there are 12 Murals in place.
