Wasaga Beach Mosaic Mural Unveiling
2026-01-30 14:00 - 15:00 | Wasaga Stars Arena, 544 River Road West, Wasaga Beach, ON, Canada
Wasaga Beach Mosaic Mural Unveiling to Take Place January 30 at Wasaga Stars Arena

WASAGA BEACH – A new piece of public artwork inspired by the movement of water is coming to Wasaga Beach. The Wasaga Mosaic Mural is a large-scale public art installation created through extensive community participation and shaped by the town’s deep connection to its shoreline and waterways.

“This mural reflects how deeply connected our community is to the water,” said Mayor Brian Smith. “Water is the lifeblood of Wasaga Beach — it shapes our identity, our economy, and our way of life. This artwork captures that connection, and it’s especially meaningful because so many people can look at it and say, ‘I helped make that.’ It’s a piece shaped by many hands and one that will be enjoyed for years to come.”

The official unveiling will take place on Friday, January 30, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. upstairs at the Wasaga Stars Arena (544 River Road West). Community members, project participants, and visitors are invited to gather and celebrate the completion of this community-built piece of art.

About the Wasaga Mosaic Mural:
1,176 hand-painted tiles created by residents of all ages
97 feet wide and 3 feet tall
Created through 50+ free community workshops over 15 months
Permanently installed at the Wasaga Stars Arena walking track

Everyone is welcome to attend the unveiling, enjoy light refreshments, hear remarks, and see this community-built artwork up close.
