The winning 4 submissions were recognised through the project’s culminating event on April 19, 2021, a YouTube short documentary premiere featuring the contestant winners, their artwork and reviews of the submissions by the panel of artists.

Panelists:

Norbert Augustine, multi-media artist, known for cycling murals in Vivian Lane
Kez Vicario-Robinson, facilitator, stand up comedy artist
Steven Schipper – Executive Director, Performing Arts, Community Services, City of Brampton

We thank the Advance Brampton Fund for providing a grant. This project aligned with Council’s priorities of “Brampton is a Healthy & Safe City”, and “Brampton is a Mosaic”.

The Contest had 3 Objectives:

1. Bring a social media buzz and excitement to cycling in Brampton.
2. Engage the arts community in the Community Cycling Program and attract new program participants.
3. Allow Brampton residents who are not regular cyclists to experience the pleasures of cycling through art.
