Legacy Art Projects

Remembrance Day Programs
For many years, students of Pouce Coupe Elementary School have provided art work for Remembrance Day. These beautiful works are transformed into the Programs for the yearly Remembrance Day Ceremony.

Murals at McNabb Park surrounding the Skating Rink
With the combined effort and donations from Community, students from Pouce Coupe Elementary School participate in a focused art challenge. Artwork is chosen and a mural is painted by the students and displayed around the rink.

Art Sessions

The Dawson Creek Art Gallery has offered free art sessions at the Pouce Coupe Community Centre. Each session is a free open studio. The DCAG provides the supplies to make the artwork and anything visitors would like to try. They welcome families to come out, enjoy themselves and the company of others. The last workshop was October 24, 2019 and was a pumpkin carving workshop/contest.
