Happy Street Art 2021
Back in November of 2019 – the city of Toronto announced that 2021 will be the year of public art.
2021: Toronto’s Year of Public Art
On November 18, Mayor John Tory proclaimed 2021 as the Year of Public Art, a year-long celebration of art and community. Working in partnership with artists, arts organizations and communities during the Year of Public Art, the City will engage residents and visitors in a city-wide recognition of public art and celebrate the incredible body of work created by local and international artists and supported by arts institutions, developers and the City.

Phoebe Lau & Virginia Lo Traffic Signal Box
Noticed this by Phoebe Lau & Virginia Lo near Ryserson.
Even found a website:
“My traffic signal box is a small-scale mural done for StreetArt Toronto’s Outside the Box program. It aims to remind students to ‘recharge’ because our mental and physical health should be a priority. To represent the Ryerson community, yellow and blue are dominant colours.”
