Vancouverites might notice colourful patterns on some pedestrian crossings in the city’s Marpole neighbourhood this weekend. But the displays are much more than decorative. In a statement, the City of Vancouver said “the crosswalk was intended to celebrate the vitality of the Musqueam community and their artistic traditions and contribute to Musqueam visibility on their unceded territory” as part of National Indigenous Peoples Day. It was created by Musqueam artist Robyn Sparrow.
