Canby Art Park and Greenspace vision and guidelines: |
|
The
9,300 square foot lot located at the corner of Territorial
Road and Holly Street is to be preserved as a community
Greenspace that celebrates our agricultural, historical,
and river-based heritage, as well as, our cultural diversity
through the elements of public art. |

1. The
space is intended to serve as a backdrop to the “Welcome to
Canby” gateway sign located at the 650 square foot tip of
the lot. The result of the final project will be to
communicate who we are as a community as well as to leave a
historical landmark for future generations. |
|
|
|
2. All
creative representation within the space will be in the form
or indigenous plants, and animals along with authenticated
historical features. A dahlia can be planted in the space,
or could be depicted through art. An example of indigenous
animals could be ones that historically were apart of our
local heritage such as deer or bear, or current examples
such as heron, owl, beaver, squirrel. Historical features
may include elements such as the Canby Ferry, early settlers
or modern day pioneers. |
