Connecting Back to the Bow
The BRCA is so excited to announce that Bridgeland-Riverside will be home to a new beautiful, inspiring public art project!
Throughout the summer, the community of Bridgeland-Riverside will have the opportunity to help beautify the chain link fence along McDougall/Riverside Park. With the designs and support of our wonderful local artist, Janel Nail, we will be painting murals that are inspired by the Bow River. We will be hosting several painting workshops, events and parties to celebrate this process. Through funding from TD Park and Bridgeland-Riverside, we are able to bring this amazing project to life!
Thank you to the BRCA Beautification Committee for all their handwork work in this process.
We invite you to join us for public workshops, installation events and celebratory functions! Stay tuned for all the fun events!
And so it begins!!!!

Special thanks to this year's ultra fab cheer stations: Bridgeland Market, Bike and Brew, and Blue Star Diner.
Note that there will be parking restrictions on some city streets beginning Saturday (it will be well signed!) and rolling road closures on Sunday from 5:30am to 1:30pm. Vehicles are at risk of being towed if they ignore parking restrictions.
