Downtown Saskatoon is excited to welcome one of the Global Roots Mural Mosaics into the district at K.W. Nasser Plaza in River Landing. Join us on June 14th at 1 pm in the plaza for the unveiling of Downtown's newest art addition. Feel free to bring your painted tile for a selfie.

Global Root's project goal is to (re)connect the world with one painted tile, one tree, one community, and one country at a time. Mural mosaic art director and artist, Lewis Lavoie, has chosen a tree as the project's symbol of connection. Variations of the mural are located around the world, and now we have one within Saskatoon.

Should you be travelling from out of town, be sure to book your stay at The Alt Hotel for a Downtown Saskatoon discount in celebration of this art unveiling.
A booking link is available at https://dtnyxe.ca/global-roots-mosaic-mural-invite/
Or reference Global Roots by phone at time of booking.

The Global Roots Mural Mosaic is in partnership with Downtown Saskatoon + Triovest.
