LETHBRIDGE, AB – The City of Lethbridge is issuing a call for Indigenous artists.
The latest public realm improvement project will see the City team with community partners Primaris (Park Place Mall), the Galt Museum & Archives, the Lethbridge Public Library, the University of Lethbridge, the Lethbridge Agri-Food Hub & Trade Centre, and the Allied Arts Council.
Six individual designs will be selected to be wrapped on prefabricated OKI signs.
In 2019, the City of Lethbridge Heart of Our City Committee and the Reconciliation Lethbridge Advisory Committee partnered to develop an OKI sign as part of celebrating 2019 as the United Nations International Year of Indigenous Languages, as well as the adoption of ‘Oki’ as the official greeting of the City of Lethbridge. Since 2019, the City’s two OKI signs have been seen across the community at special celebrations and events.
