To warm Salmon Arm up for our first annual Pride Project Arts & Awareness Festival, we teamed up with Downtown Salmon Arm and Salmon Arm Economic Development, challenging business owners to create a colourful display to show their pride and support for the SHUswap LGBTQ2S+ community.

There were 27 amazing businesses who participated in our challenge! Enjoy a scroll through some highlights, captured by the wonderfully talented Kristal Burgess.

...and the winners were...

MOST CREATIVE MATERIAL USE: The Mossy Stump

VIEWERS CHOICE AWARD: Inclusive Arts

KIDS CHOICE AWARD: Salmon Arm Stationery & Office Supplies

Thanks to everyone who participated--we can't wait for next year's competition!
