Valleyview Mandala
The Work
Valleyview Mandala was created by Kelowna artist Kristin Grant (Urbanheart). This energetic design at the end of a summer full of surfing on the lake, inspired by the colours of the Okanagan, the blue of the valley’s mountains and the glow of the sunset. Soothing shades were chosen to radiate positivity and healing energy to the visitors of Valleyview Chiropractic and Massage, as well as the entire community. She hopes that the cheery summertime vibe will bring warmth and smiles to the neighbourhood in every season.
The Project
he Uptown Mural Project was a community-inclusive and educative urban-art initiative within the community of Rutland, Kelowna BC, organized by Uptown Rutland Business Association. This project centered around the painting large scale urban murals. Each of the mural's locations has been strategically selected creating a short walking tour within the Rutland Business Improvement Area.
The goals of this project are driven towards the beautification of Rutland, encouraging community involvement, increasing walkability within the business improvement area, and educating and inspiring youth through contemporary public art. The Uptown Mural Project is proudly supported in part with funding by the City of Kelowna
