The City of Surrey invites Expressions of Interest (EOI) from professional artists or artist teams to create a heritage feature with integrated artworks in a public park, as well as a related small-scale intervention in the historic Strawberry Hill neighbourhood of Newton, Surrey. These spaces will connect residents to the legacy of Surrey’s early Japanese Canadians and will confront the injustice of their uprooting, dispossession, and internment.
Submission Deadline: March 10, 2025
