WINDOW MURAL SERIES
Check It Out!
Our debut project is a Window Mural Series celebrating local art and our community. This series features an array of window wraps adorning the downtown core in some unlikely spaces. We are highlighting local community members and their artwork by utilizing windows and storefronts that are currently empty or under construction. We aim to brighten our walking spaces and provide more reasons for everyone to explore downtown.
Thank you to everyone who submitted artwork. They were all incredible, and it was a difficult selection process. There will be more opportunities coming soon, and we hope to continue finding new artists to join our Accent! community.
A big thank you also to the City of Moncton for sponsoring our artists’ fees for this project and allowing us to give each featured artist $250 for the reproduction of their work.

About Accent!:
Accent! Downtown Moncton Centre-ville is a new initiative designed to ignite creativity, foster community spirit, and bring energy to the heart of Downtown Moncton.
Imagine strolling through downtown, surrounded by vibrant colours and thought-provoking art at every turn. This program is not just about beautifying our streets; it’s about weaving art into the fabric of our daily lives, making Downtown Moncton a must-visit destination that resonates with creativity and innovation for locals and visitors alike.
The name Accent! perfectly captures the essence of the project. In both English and French, the word accent signifies highlighting with a distinctive emphasis. Just as accents in language highlight and give character to speech, the murals and artworks in this series will add a creative spark to our downtown area.
