The District of North Vancouver is inviting expressions of interest to design and paint a mural at the Lynn Canyon Ecology Centre, nestled in the temperate rainforest of Lynn Canyon Park.

The new mural will showcase the centre, creating a welcoming visual that draws visitors both to the facility and the surrounding park. Its design should complement and celebrate the flora, fauna, and fungi of the natural area.
