A mural has been proposed for the side of the sea container Bottle Shack on Discovery Ridge Boulevard, across from Cornerstone Mall.
This sea container was installed in 2020 as a permanent secure location for receiving refundable bottles and cans, hence the name, Bottle Shack. The donations from the community produce a significant amount of revenue for the Discovery Ridge Community Association which helps support the recreational facilities and other community events which enhance Discovery Ridge as a desirable place to live.
The DRCA board decided last year that since the metal sea container Bottle Shack is a permanent feature in the community, the time had come to enhance it and make it a feature of our community space.
After reviewing several options, the above wildlife scene was selected as it is reflective of Discovery Ridge’s unique position next to Griffith Woods. We will be supporting a local Alberta artist – Emily Beaudoin – who is hoping to start in mid-June as weather permits and the mural will be completed this summer.
We are excited about this enhancement in the community! Please let us know what you think about this art project by emailing [email protected].
