The artists are invited to create original murals on the retaining wall along the path and install sculptures along the entry gates. The artists will include well established names in contemporary arts and street art scene as well as upcoming artists, students, and school-aged children. The emphasis is put on local artists.

The project committee consisting of members of Albus Cavus and New Brunswick Community Arts Council oversees the selection and installation of the artworks. Artists are either invited or chosen through an open call for art. Artists are required to submit detailed sketches along with a plan for installation. Selected artists will be awarded with free supplies or a stipend covering travel and lodging expenses. The fair and non-discriminatory selection and approval process assures that the art collection will consistently grow with new original and innovative works.

This looks cool - I have never heard of it until now!
