PUBLIC ART
Neighbourhood Picnic Tables
Neighbourhood Picnic Tables
The City of Waterloo invites the public to enjoy these creative, unique, and vibrant picnic tables featured in the Neighbourhood Picnic Table Program. Each year, in partnership with the City’s Neighbourhoods team, Create Waterloo commissions local artists to transform picnic tables across Waterloo into colourful works of public art. Since 2021, 46 local artists have showcased their artwork in 15 Neighbourhood parks throughout Waterloo. Today, these colourful tables form a growing, citywide collection that celebrates local creativity and enhances public spaces for everyone to enjoy. Featured picnic tables remain in the program for a period of up to three years.
