Have a seat in Quinte West!

Fresh colour and creativity have been added to Quinte West parks and public spaces with the launch of the City’s ‘I HEART Quinte West’ painted Muskoka chair project.

‘I HEART Quinte West’ features 46 decorative Muskoka chairs painted by local residents, families, community members and artists with designs that celebrate the Quinte West community.

This new public art exhibit is part of the City’s line-up of 25th anniversary celebrations, showcasing Quinte West’s community, multiculturalism, diversity and heritage throughout 2023.

More information about the events and activities marking Quinte West’s 25th anniversary is available at quintewest.ca/QW25.
