Submit a few words or short phrase for four fences on the Downsview lands!

A selection panel of local and city-wide community arts experts will choose four winning entries, which will be woven into the local fences this summer.

 

This competition is open to neighbours, students, artists, seniors, poets, story-tellers, kids, dog-walkers, and everyone else! Winning wordsmiths will each get a $100 gift certificate to any Downsview business of their choice.
