PATTISON Outdoor Advertising and Spacing Magazine present the 2nd annual Dear City Canada, the highly successful cross-country, public art project about the cities we inhabit from July 14 to August 10, 2014.
Dear City Canada is part of PATTISON’s ongoing Art in Transit programme.
Join other urbanists in a public dialogue about the issues affecting our daily lives in the cities we inhabit. True love or tough love, we will share your tweeted love letter (140 characters) with the rest of Canada. Start your tweet by indicating your city, “@DearCityCanada Dear [name of your city] .”
The deadline to tweet your urban love letter to @DearCityCanada is June 30, 2014.
“Dear City Canada was such a success last year that we couldn’t wait to bring it back and expand the project beyond billboards. This year Dear City Canada will appear across the country on digital billboards, as well as on screens in shopping malls and office buildings, on two transit systems, and the Calgary Airport. Spacing is the perfect partner for this project because of their commitment to civic dialogue and creative approach into civic engagement.
“Spacing is pleased to partner with Art in Transit to present the 2nd annual Dear City Canada art project, which successfully demonstrates an alternative use of screens in public spaces and presents an innovative means to communicate peoples’ ideas about their hometown or adopted city of residence. Dear City Canada complements Spacing’s vision to create a forum of positive dialogue about cities in which people express their civic affection,” said Matthew Blackett, Publisher and Editor, Spacing.
