The North Vancouver Recreation & Culture Commission (NVRC) is dedicated to preserving and expanding the City and District of North Vancouver’s celebrated public art collection. The Public Art Program is administered and delivered through three major program streams; Civic Public Art, Community Public Art and Developer Public Art. For each of these program areas, municipally endorsed polices and procedures are in place to guide the public art selection process from site identification and artist selection, through to artwork installation and ongoing maintenance.
