The ArtSurge
ArtSurge is a yearly thematic self-guided public art tour which allows the viewer to discover or rediscover emblematic sites of the cities and towns of Lunenburg County. This event invites the visitor to get in touch with this rich heritage by offering interactive public art installations scattered throughout the South Shore. ArtSurge will start in Mahone Bay, the heart of the south coast and offers a route throughout the south shore linking public parks, private lands, mansions and interior courtyards, which are usually not visible to visitors.
ArtSurge sets itself apart from other art initiatives by its unique approach to creating themed interactive art installations. These installations are the result of collaborative teams comprising architects, public artists, lighting designers, and landscape architects. This diverse team composition enables the project to emphasize works that propose, invent, experiment, and explore new fields and conceptions of our environment.
