Banner Program

A community enhancement initiative...

Showcase your creative talents by taking part in this annual street enhancement program. This is a great creative activity for adults, children, non-profit organizations and businesses. Everyone is welcome to participate... and you don't have to be an artist! On site artists will guide and advise you while you paint your banner at the Visual Arts Centre. Banners are installed in early spring once the winter seasonal banners are taken down and displayed until the following December. You will then be contacted to collect your banner from the Community Centre.

This years theme -  Fun in the Forest!

What to do

  • Create a simple, easy to paint design that will allow you to paint your banner in the time allocated (3 hours).
  • A simple design means your banner will be easy to see from the streets, displaying the desired effect.
  • The theme should stand out.
  • Remember to sign your banner

What not to do

  • Avoid small details, images, or text on your banner design as it will be difficult to see once it is hung.
  • Text is not permitted on banners (excluding business logos).
  • No logos. Business banners will have their business' name pre-painted on the bottom of the banners before the banner is painted by you. All text will be the same for continuity.
  • Copyright images will not be accepted

Please consider the following

  • Numbers are limited; only those registered are to attend the Visual Arts Centre to paint banners.
  • Children under 12 must be accompanied by 1 adult. (Please adhere to this so we can maintain capacity regulations.)
  • To keep the program running on time, it is critical for painters to arrive and finish within the 3 hour time slot.
  • If you need to confirm or change your painting date, please call the Community Centre at 250-837-9351 ext. 3.
  • Once the banners are taken down, they are delivered to the Revelstoke Community Centre for collection. 
    The contact's name and number given at registration will be called for banner pick up.
