Local artist Lesley Russell’s public art piece Locked Door, displayed in Canmore’s Rotary Park as part of the Everyone Needs A Home project, was vandalized over the weekend.

I spoke with Lesley about the purpose of this art piece and why she is leaving it up as is in spite of the vandalism.

You’re welcome to stop by Locked Door and write on the chalk board about affordable housing, the vandalism, or anything else while it’s still on display.
