Public Art in Barrie

A Project of the Barrie Public Art Committee

Public art is visual art that exists in the public realm. It includes all works that are commissioned, purchased by, or donated to the City to be located in publicly accessible spaces. Public art is essential to the fabric of a healthy community and Barrie is committed to growing our collection and developing programming that appeals to residents and visitors alike. The city’s parks, suburban developments and downtown core are punctuated with art and installations that offer unique markers of place. This character roots our community, fostering identity and pride in the places we work and play while stimulating economic development through tourism and infrastructure investment.

The City of Barrie and partners are proud to showcase public art in four main areas: along the waterfront, in the downtown core, in Barrie south, and at the Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre (RVH). You are invited to explore the City through the lens of public art both online and in person.
