Tourism Prince Rupert makes plans for 2022 Tourism Season

Tourism Prince Rupert is seemingly feeling optimistic about a return to more normal times for 2022, with the local organization having put forward a few new initiatives in recent days to get everyone on the North Coast thinking of themes of tourism.

The first was an opportunity for advertisers to get word of their products or services out, taking advantage of some advertising opportunities for the Visitor guide for next season.

In their notes on the project Tourism Prince Rupert notes the following elements towards the advertising program:

Today, Tourism Prince Rupert issued a Call For Artists, announcing the opening of applications towards the development of new wayfinding signage to be placed throughout Prince Rupert.

The scope of the project is described as follows:

This destination development project aims to help both locals and visitors more easily locate key retail, dining, hospitality, and outdoor adventure business and attractions in the downtown core, an issue long identified by key tourism stakeholders and visitors alike, by installing colourful new wayfinding signage featuring designs from local artists in key downtown districts and along the Cow Bay waterfront. 

This new wayfinding signage will help visitors find key attractions throughout Prince Rupert, providing detailed information and map illustrations noting distances and other important information. In the course of this project, we also aim to introduce more public art into Prince Rupert’s key areas, including the work of local Indigenous artists. 

The artwork produced for this project will be inspired by the beautiful natural landscape and wilderness surrounding Prince Rupert.

Those will an interest in participating in that project can learn more about and submit their application here.

The deadline for submissions has been set for November 26th.
