A walk through Orangeville now offers four new opportunities to experience local creativity.

Since 2016, Orangeville’s Utility Box Art Display Program has showcased local talent and contributed to the Town’s growing public art collection. These new installations join a collection of 42 utility box art pieces across Orangeville, alongside murals, tree sculptures and monuments that add to Orangeville’s vibrant and welcoming public spaces.

Orangeville Hydro sponsored three of the installations, reflecting its ongoing commitment to enhancing and beautifying public spaces throughout Orangeville. To date, it has helped fund artwork on 10 transformers through the Utility Box Art Display Program.

An online listing of all public art pieces including these new installations can be found at orangeville.ca/DigitalGuide
