Recently, the Murals Committee of Cornwall was established in order to initiate a Heritage Murals project in Cornwall to honor the City's eventful history. To date, three murals located in the downtown area, have been painted by Canadian artists and reflect historic settings and events from Cornwall's past.

Also as a result of the "Walldog Jam" held in the summer of 2001, Cornwall now boasts an additional 9 murals throughout the City. Stroll through the Downtown and Le Village Shopping Districts to view twelve outdoor heritage murals.

These colourful murals have been lovingly created in different artistic styles, each one depicting an important era or event in our community. Along the route you’ll find several buildings of historical value and exceptional architecture, as well as unique shops, restaurants and cafés.

To assist you in your tour, stop by the Visitor Information Centre at 11 Water St. West and pick up a copy of the brochure locating each of the murals for you. You might even want to purchase a set of mural postcards!
