Permits from the town will no longer be required to create murals on buildings in Osoyoos after council decided this week to exempt them from the town’s sign bylaw.
Three days and 76 litres of paint later, Osoyoos’ latest outdoor mural has taken shape on a blank wall on Main St. across from Nestor’s Market parking lot, adding yet another colourful piece to Osoyoos’ outdoor art collection.
When Peter Scott retired from a nearly 30 year career as an art educator to elementary, secondary and college students, little could he know the ‘warmest welcome’ he was going to receive from Osoyoos.
