The 2008 Festival of Banners is underway!

BC 150 Years:
Nanaimo’s Past, Present and Future!

The Nanaimo Art Gallery presents the Festival of Banners for the 21st consecutive year! Members of the public are invited to take part in the Festival that brightens the streets of Nanaimo from May to October. Propose an original design for a banner to the Festival’s selection committee, and, upon approval, paint your banner on a scheduled date! The painted banners will be posted along the main streets of Nanaimo’s downtown area, along the sea-wall promenade, the Departure Bay Beach, as well as the South End.

The theme this year honours the 150th anniversary of British Columbia. It is to commemorate local history, events, and places, . . . all things Nanaimo. Our entry forms contain all the necessary information. You can download a copy here, or pick it up at either of the two Nanaimo Art Gallery locations.

Take part in the Nanaimo Art Gallery’s Festival of Banners, and join us in celebrating our province’s special anniversary!

For more information, please call 740-6350, or e-mail: info@nanaimogallery.ca

PS: Last year’s unsold banners are still available for sale! If you are interested, please take a look at the 2007 Banner Auction.
Unsold banners are priced at $25.00 each.
